GAME LOG

Kyle Kuzma - Leading scorer in loss Kuzma notched 17 points (8-17 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes during Friday's 124-97 loss to Brooklyn.
Impact Kuzma was one of four Wizards players to score in double-digits as the team struggled to score. He played a team-high 30 minutes despite the blowout loss and has now scored 15-plus points in five straight games. Kuzma came into Friday's game averaging career highs in points (23.2), shooting (47.3 percent) and assists (4.8).

Jordan Poole - Quiet night in loss Poole supplied eight points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists over 24 minutes during Friday's 124-97 loss to the Nets.
Impact The normally high-volume shooter took a season-low seven shots Friday night. Poole's eight points also broke a seven-game stretch of scoring in double-digits as he struggled to get involved on offense. His 24 minutes of playing time was the lowest since Nov 1. due to the large deficit and he'll look to get back on track Monday against the 76ers.

Mikal Bridges scored 21 points and the Brooklyn Nets routed the Washington Wizards 124-97 on Friday night for their third straight victory and fifth in six games
DECEMBER 9, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Daniel Gafford - Good to go Gafford (ankle) is available for Friday's matchup against Brooklyn, Ava Wallace of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Gafford has been upgraded from questionable to available and will suit up for a 17th straight game. Over his last 11 appearances, Gafford has averaged 12.1 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.8 blocks in 26.5 minutes per game.
DECEMBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Daniel Gafford - Full participant in shootaround Gafford (ankle), who is questionable for Friday's game against the Nets, fully participated in Washington's morning shootaround, Ava Wallace of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Gafford is dealing with a left ankle sprain ahead of Friday's matchup, but his participation in shootaround certainly bodes well for his status. He's scored in double figures in four of his last five appearances, averaging 12.4 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 24.2 minutes per game.
DECEMBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Patrick Baldwin Jr. - Recalled by Washington The Wizards recalled Baldwin from the Capital City Go-Go on Friday.
Impact Baldwin was assigned to the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Thursday, but he'll rejoin the Wizards ahead of Friday's game in Brooklyn. The 21-year-old shouldn't be part of Washington's rotation after averaging just 3.7 minutes per game over three appearances with the club earlier this year.
DECEMBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ryan Rollins - Still sidelined Rollins (knee) won't play in Friday's game versus the Nets.
Impact Rollins will miss his eighth straight game Friday due to a right knee strain. His next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Philadelphia.
DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Landry Shamet - Unavailable Friday Shamet (ribs) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the 76ers.
Impact Shamet sat out Wednesday's game against Philadelphia with his rib injury, and he'll be forced to miss a second consecutive matchup Friday. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return to action, but his next opportunity to do so will be Monday in a rematch against the 76ers.
DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Daniel Gafford - Questionable against Brooklyn Gafford is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Nets due to a left ankle sprain.
Impact Gafford presumably injured his ankle in Wednesday's contest and could be held out of Friday's game. If Gafford is downgraded to out, Mike Muscala will likely see an increase in minutes.
DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Bilal Coulibaly - Solid showing despite loss Coulibaly logged 14 points (6-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists, three steals and a rebound through 28 minutes in Wednesday's 131-126 loss to the 76ers.
Impact Coulibaly has consistently seen heavy minutes this season, especially as of recently. Since missing the Milwaukee game Nov. 24 due to a knee injury, the rookie forward has averaged 9.0 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.8 steals and 0.4 blocks over 29.0 minutes. He and Corey Kispert lead the charge amongst the second unit for the Wizards, and as he develops through his first season, expect Coulibaly's role to potentially increase moving forward.

Daniel Gafford - All-around game in loss Gafford racked up 18 points (8-10 FG, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal over 23 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 131-126 loss to the 76ers.
Impact Gafford has now scored in double-digits in nine of his last 11 games as he continues to operate behind Kyle Kuzma and Jordan Poole on the offensive side of the floor. Gafford has shown promise on both ends of the floor and has now registered at least two blocks in six straight appearances.
DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Tyus Jones - Efficient night in loss Jones ended with 20 points (8-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and one steal across 31 minutes during Wednesday's 131-126 loss to the 76ers.
Impact Jones tied with Deni Avdija with the most assists on the team. Jones has now scored in double digits in nine of his last 11 games as he continues to establish his role on offense alongside the duo of Jordan Poole and Kyle Kuzma. Jones will look to build off his strong performance Friday against the Nets.
DECEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Poole - Finally has efficient night Poole racked up 23 points (10-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 131-126 loss to Philadelphia.
Impact It was the third time this season -- and the first time since Nov. 6 -- that Poole has shot at least 50 percent from the floor. The fifth-year guard out of Michigan has struggled with his shot this season as he takes on a bigger role compared to when he was with the Warriors in his first four years in the league. Poole will look to continue his momentum Friday against the Nets.

Jordan Poole - Good to go Wednesday Poole (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game versus Philadelphia.
Impact Poole has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday despite dealing with a nagging ankle injury. The 24-year-old guard is averaging 18.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals in 29.6 minutes across his last five appearances.

Landry Shamet - Won't play Wednesday Shamet (neck) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the 76ers, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Impact Shamet didn't practice Tuesday and will officially be sidelined for the first time in a month. Corey Kispert and Jared Butler are candidates to see increased roles against Philadelphia.
DECEMBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Johnny Davis - Considered week-to-week The Wizards announced Wednesday that Davis has been diagnosed with a left calf strain and will be evaluated weekly.
Impact Davis missed time earlier in the season due to an elbow issue and is now dealing with a calf injury that will sideline him for multiple games. The 2022 lottery pick has struggled to stay healthy in his first two seasons and hasn't produced even when he's been on the court.
