Bilal Coulibaly - Not on injury report Coulibaly (pelvis) isn't listed on Washington's injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Coulibaly returned to practice Sunday and will end his three-game absence Monday. The rookie carved out a large role in February, averaging 7.8 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 29.0 minutes over nine appearances (five starts) before suffering the pelvis injury.

Bilal Coulibaly - Ramping up Coulibaly (pelvis) was active at practice Sunday, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Impact The extent to which Coulibaly practiced Sunday is unspecified, but the 19-year-old appears to be on the mend from a bruised right pelvis which has cost him Washington's past three games. Monday against Utah represents his next opportunity to take the court.

RJ Hampton - Inks 10-day deal with Washington Hampton signed a 10-day contract with the Wizards on Sunday.
Impact Hampton will be getting his second NBA opportunity of the season, after he previously appeared in eight games with the Heat while on a two-way deal before Miami waived him in February. The 2020 first-round draft pick has seen the bulk of his playing time in the G League this season, averaging 12.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.1 three-pointers in 24.8 minutes per game over 15 appearances between the Capital City Go-Go and Sioux Falls Skyforce.

RJ Hampton - Slated to sign 10-day Hampton will sign a 10-day contract with the Wizards on Sunday, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Impact Justin Champagnie's 10-day expired Sunday, and Washington retained him by offering a two-way deal, which opens up a spot on the 15-man roster for Hampton. Hampton has spent time with Denver, Orlando, Detroit and Miami over the last four seasons, but he's never been able to supply sustained production. Hampton isn't guaranteed playing time in Washington, but there will be minutes available if Bilal Coulibaly (pelvis) remains sidelined.

Justin Champagnie - Gets two-way deal Champagnie signed a two-way contract with Washington on Sunday, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports.
Impact Coming off a 10-day contract, Champagnie will be converted to a two-way deal after compiling 11 points, one rebound and one assist across 16 minutes in three appearances for the Wizards. The 6-foot-6 wing hybrid joins a relatively crowded rotation of swingmen off the bench, featuring Jordan Poole, Landry Shamet, Corey Kispert and Johnny Davis.

Marvin Bagley III - Ekes out double-double Bagley provided 10 points (5-9 FG) and 10 rebounds across 28 minutes during Friday's 140-115 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Bagley produced in line with his seasonal averages in the defeat, but his move to the Wizards has given the Duke product more output as a full-time starter. The Wizards didn't have to part with much to acquire Bagley, and they felt confident enough with him to send Daniel Gafford packing. The 24-year-old has plenty of potential and despite the team's current woes, he has some rebounding value as a waiver-wire target.

Deni Avdija - Posts 14 points in loss Avdija racked up 14 points (4-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds and five assists over 26 minutes during Friday's 140-115 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Avdija is dealing with a heel issue that caused him to miss three games, but he came off the injury report and played a second consecutive game with the ailment. Avdija was running hot prior to the All-Star break, and fantasy managers should expect an upward trend as he gets further away from the injury.

Kyle Kuzma - Explodes for 32 points in defeat Kuzma finished with 32 points (13-19 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes during Friday's 140-115 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Kuzma put together his fourth-best scoring total of the season. The team desperately needed his output as the rest of the roster is in disarray. The Wizards elected to empty the bench later in the game, and the backups didn't fare much better. The Wizards will continue to slog through the rest of the schedule, and Kuzma is probably the only fantasy option you can rely on.

Deni Avdija - Cleared to play Friday Avdija (heel) will play in Friday's game against the Clippers.
Impact Avdija was carrying a questionable tag prior to this update due to a nagging heel issue, but he looked terrific Thursday with 15 points (5-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 15 rebounds, five assists and one steal in 43 minutes. Although Friday is the second leg of a back-to-back set, there's been no mention of any restrictions.

Eugene Omoruyi - Agrees to standard deal Omoruyi agreed to a standard two-year NBA contract with the Wizards on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact Omoruyi was previously operating under a two-way deal and made 27 appearances for the Wizards this season, averaging 4.6 points and 2.1 rebounds in 7.6 minutes per game. His role isn't likely to increase after the new deal unless Washington starts shutting down its regulars, but it's still a solid promotion for the 27-year-old.
