Jordan Poole - Ruled out for Friday Poole (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls, Chuck Swirsky of the Bulls Radio Network reports.
Impact Poole is dealing with a non-COVID illness and will be sidelined for the first time since Jan. 31. Jared Butler and Johnny Davis could see increased run Friday, while Poole's final chance to suit up during the regular season will be Sunday against Boston.

Deni Avdija - Iffy against Chicago Avdija is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Bulls due to a non-COVID illness.
Impact It appears an illness is spreading throughout Washington's locker room, as Jordan Poole and Eugene Omoruyi are also questionable due to a non-COVID illness. If Avdija is ruled out, Johnny Davis, Patrick Baldwin, and Anthony Gill are all candidates to receive increased playing time.
APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE
A season of challenges has made clear: Deni Avdija has grown up Given stability in Washington, the Wizards forward is playing stronger on the court, even as the Israel-Gaza war pulls at him off it.

Eugene Omoruyi - Questionable for Friday Omoruyi is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls due to a non-COVID illness.
Impact Omoruyi has been back in action over the past five matchups after missing seven games due to an ankle injury, but he's dealing with an illness ahead of Friday's matchup. If he's unavailable against the Bulls, Anthony Gill and Tristan Vukcevic could see an uptick in playing time.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Landry Shamet - Still sidelined Shamet (calf) won't play in Friday's game versus the Bulls.
Impact Shamet's absence streak will extend to 17 games Friday due to a left calf strain. His final chance to suit up this season is Sunday's matchup with Boston.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Kyle Kuzma - To remain sidelined Friday Kuzma (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Kuzma continues to deal with a right ankle sprain and will be unavailable for a fourth consecutive matchup. His final chance to suit up this year will be Sunday against the Celtics.

Jordan Poole - Questionable agianst Chicago Poole is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Bulls due to a non-COVID illness.
Impact Poole is in danger of missing his first game since Jan. 31 on Friday due to an illness. If the 24-year-old guard is ruled out, Jared Butler and Johnny Davis are candidates to receive increased playing time.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Tyus Jones - Ruled out for Friday Jones (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Chicago.
Impact Jones hasn't suited up since March 14 due to his back injury. His final chance to play this year will be Sunday against the Celtics.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Marvin Bagley III - Will remain sidelined Friday Bagley (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls.
Impact Bagley sustained a knee injury last week and is deemed week-to-week, and he'll be sidelined for the Wizards' penultimate game of the regular season. It seems unlikely that the 25-year-old will be back in action for Sunday's regular-season finale against Boston.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Tristan Vukcevic - Set to play Friday Vukcevic (knee) isn't on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Bulls.
Impact Vukcevic will return to action Friday after missing Washington's last contest with left knee soreness. If Richaun Holmes (toe) is ruled out yet again, Vukcevic should draw another start.

Richaun Holmes - Iffy against Chicago Holmes is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Bulls.
Impact Holmes is in danger of missing his eighth straight contest Friday due to a left toe contusion. If he's ruled out yet again, Tristan Vukcevic should draw another start.

How Tyus Jones became one of the most underrated point guards in the NBA The Wizards' Tyus Jones is set to break his own record while leading the NBA in assist-to-turnover ratio for the fifth consecutive year.

Corey Kispert - Goes for 25 points Tuesday Kispert posted 25 points (9-17 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and five assists over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 130-121 loss to Minnesota.
Impact Kispert earned a regular starting role on March 10 and never looked back, establishing himself as a reliable scoring alternative on a rebuilding Wizards team. Kispert has scored in double digits in each of his last 12 contests, a span in which he's averaging 18.4 points per game while shooting an impressive 43.2 percent from three-point range. He should have decent fantasy upside in Washington's final two games of the campaign, as he's also averaging 13.3 shots per game in that 12-game stretch.
APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE
Anthony Gill - Thrives in spot start Gill finished Tuesday's 130-121 loss to Minnesota with 15 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and three blocks over 36 minutes.
Impact Gill made his second start of the season but delivered a solid performance, ending just one rebound shy of a double-double and recording a season-high mark in blocks. It remains to be seen if Gill will remain in the first unit when the Wizards take on the Bulls on Friday, though it wouldn't hurt if the coaching staff gives him an extended look in Washington's final two games of the season.
APRIL 10 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Poole - Goes for 24 points in loss Poole provided 24 points (9-22 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 130-121 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact Poole has had a rough season in his first year with the Wizards, but it seems spending time on the bench midway through the campaign clicked something in him, and he's ending the campaign on a solid note. Poole has scored 20 or more points in five of his last six appearances, a span in which he's averaging 23.3 points per game while shooting 43.2 percent from the field.
