Monte Morris - Questionable SundayMorris (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in New York, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
ImpactMorris recorded four points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3PT, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal across 13 minutes in Friday's 116-119 loss to the Magic before exiting with a sore right ankle. His status for Sunday's game will depend on how that ankle is feeling prior to tip-off. Delon Wright and Kendrick Nunn would presumably be in line for expanded roles at point guard should he ultimately get ruled out.

Kyle Kuzma - Out again SundayKuzma (ankle) will not play in Sunday's game against the Knicks, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
ImpactKuzma will be held out of a seventh consecutive game Sunday as he continues to nurse a sprained right ankle. His absence has opened up more opportunities for Deni Avdija, Corey Kispert and Johnny Davis. Kuzma's next chance to play will come Tuesday versus the Bucks.

Kristaps Porzingis - Questionable SundayPorzingis (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Knicks, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
ImpactPorzingis is coming off a one-game absence due to a non-Covid related illness. He was a partial participant at Saturday's practice, so he is seemingly trending in the right direction. Still, his final status will depend on how he is feeling closer to tip-off. Some combination of Deni Avdija, Taj Gibson and Anthony Gill would presumably be in line for extra minutes if he is ultimately ruled out again.

Bradley Beal - Still sidelinedBeal (knee) will not play in Sunday's game against the Knicks, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
ImpactBeal will miss a sixth consecutive game due to a sprained left knee, which should allow for Corey Kispert and Delon Wright to continue to see extended run. With the Wizards three games back of a spot in the play-in and only five games left on their schedule, Beal could be a shutdown candidate if the team falls out of contention. Regardless, he will have another chance to play Tuesday against Milwaukee.
