WASHINGTON WIZARDS NEWS

Needs more time at practice Coach Monty Williams said that Baynes needs more five-on-five practice reps before playing in a game, but that it's tough to get those reps because the Suns play every other day, D...

Impact Baynes wasn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's opener against the Wizards, but he didn't see the floor. Considering what coach Williams noted, it's unclear when we may see Baynes take the court in the bubble. For the duration of his absence, we should see Frank Kaminsky rack up minutes as the backup center.

Scores team-high 21 points Hachimura produced 21 points (8-15 FG, 5-5 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal in 30 minutes during Friday's 125-112 loss to Phoenix.

Impact Hachimura continues to put up strong scoring numbers and appears to basically have the green light on offense. With no Bradley Beal (personal), Hachimura is one of the proven scoring options for the Wizards. Despite being just a rookie, he has demonstrated his offensive enthusiasm on many occasions. This should transfer into mid-round value over the next two weeks of action.

Goes for 20 points in loss Robinson totaled 20 points (7-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 125-112 loss to the Suns.

Impact Robinson played 32 minutes off the bench, second only to Thomas Bryant, who saw 34 minutes. Robinson began the game on fire and cooled slightly to end with 20 points including four triples. The Wizards are basically looking for offense wherever they can find it at this point and Robinson certainly appears as though he is going to have a sizeable role moving forward. He doesn't do a lot outside of scoring the basketball but is worth a look if you are lacking in scoring.

Posts 17 points, seven dimes LeVert recorded 17 points (7-17 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven assists, two rebounds and one steal in 27 minutes during Friday's 128-118 loss to the Magic.

Impact LeVert paced the Nets in shot attempts and assists during the opener, which isn't too surprising given the state of the team. It was a solid performance, though not particularly efficient, and he had four turnovers. He'll look to clean things up a bit Sunday against the Wizards.
