Richaun Holmes News, Rumors, Updates - Washington Wizards

Huge night on glass Holmes ended Thursday's 109-102 win over Sacramento with six points (2-9 FG, 2-2 FT), 16 rebounds, two assists and one block across 29 minutes.

Impact Making his fourth straight start since returning from a toe injury, Holmes had his best rebounding performance since Nov. 5 of 2021, when he ripped down 20 boards as a member of the Kings. The 30-year-old center is averaging 9.4 points, 8.8 boards, 1.0 assists and 0.8 blocks in 27.2 minutes a contest while getting the start in his last five games, and he should retain that role and workload until Marvin Bagley (back) is able to suit up again.

Poor numbers in return Holmes (toe) posted seven points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal across 26 minutes Saturday in the Wizards' 127-98 loss to the Bulls.

Impact Holmes made his return from a three-game absence due to a left big toe sprain and reclaimed a spot in the starting five, and despite facing no minutes restriction, he turned in an underwhelming fantasy line. With the Wizards ruling Marvin Bagley (back) out once again Sunday against the Celtics, Holmes should draw another start in the second leg of the back-to-back set.

MARCH 17 • ROTOWIRE

Available Saturday Holmes (toe) is good to go for Saturday's game in Chicago.

Impact Holmes is set to return from a three-game absence due to a left toe sprain. With Marvin Bagley (back) sidelined, the veteran's presence will be needed in the frontcourt. Look for him to take on his usual workload assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Questionable for Thursday Holmes (toe) is questionable for Thursday's game versus Houston.

Impact Holmes has spent the past two games on the sidelines due to the toe injury, and it's been Kyle Kuzma and Bilal Coulibaly filling most of the frontcourt minutes in his absence. It'll be more of the same if he's out again Thursday night, but we'll have a better idea on his status based on his activity level at shootaround.

MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE

Unavailable Tuesday Holmes (toe) will not play Tuesday versus Memphis.

Impact Holmes will leave behind a center rotation likely to be filled by Kyle Kuzma, with fringe rotational roles for Patrick Baldwin and Eugune Omoruyi on Tuesday.

MARCH 12 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Tuesday Homes (toe) is questionable to play Tuesday versus Memphis.

Out Sunday Holmes (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Miami.

Impact Coming off a 14-point, 11-rebound double-double in his first start with the Wizards in Friday's loss, Holmes will now be sidelined due to a left big toe sprain. With both Holmes and Marvin Bagley (back) sidelined, the Wizards are lacking in traditional options at center and could deploy Kyle Kuzma as a small-ball option at the position. Holmes' next opportunity to take the court comes Tuesday versus Memphis.

MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE

Late addition to injury report Holmes is questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat due to a left big toe sprain, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Holmes is a late addition to the injury report, and his absence could be a significant blow, as Marvin Bagley (back) remains out. If both big men are unavailable, the Wizards won't have a true center to face Bam Adebayo and the Heat, so Kyle Kuzma, Eugene Omoruyi and Anthony Gill would be candidates for playing time as a small-ball five.

MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE

Gets starting nod Holmes is in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Hornets.

Impact With Marvin Bagley (back) still out, Holmes will replace Corey Kispert in the starting five Friday. Holmes is averaging 5.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.0 blocks in his previous two starts this season, both for the Mavericks.

Scores one point in 12 minutes Holmes contributed one point (0-3 FG, 1-2 FT) and three rebounds over 12 minutes during Tuesday's 123-112 loss to the Warriors.

Impact Holmes was barely noticeable in the loss, continuing his disappointing season. Despite being traded to a more favorable situation in Washington, Holmes has played fewer than 15 minutes in all five games. Given what we have seen during his time with the Wizards, there is no reason to consider him a serviceable fantasy asset.

Heading to Washington Holmes was traded from the Mavericks to the Wizards on Thursday in exchange for Daniel Gafford, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Holmes had an inconsistent role for the Mavericks over the past few weeks, but he'll have an opportunity for a fresh start with his new team. Since Gafford is heading to Dallas as part of the return, Holmes will likely serve as the Wizards' primary backup at center once Marvin Bagley (back) is healthy.
