Hilario (rest) returned to the court in limited fashion Friday against the Nets after just 19 minutes on the court. He concluded the game with six points, two rebounds, and two assists.
Hilario was back on the court but it doesn't appear that the Wizards are overly serious about playing him for extended minutes. This means that he'll be a hard player to justify owning as he takes it easy before Washington's playoff campaign.

Hilario (rest) will return Friday against the Nets, Jorge Castillo of the Washington Post reports.

Hilario (rest) did not practice Wednesday, J. Michael of CSN reports.
Hilario rested for both games of the Wizards back-to-back set over the weekend, and it looks as though he could be headed for another rest day Wednesday with the 76ers on the schedule. If Nene sits again, expect Drew Gooden to make another start in his place. Gooden scored 16 points in 30 minutes Saturday.

Hilario (rest) took part in Monday's practice, the Washington Post reports.
With a playoff berth wrapped up, the Wizards have been afforded an opportunity to rest veterans like Hilario, who has missed the past two games. His next chance to play arrives Wednesday at Philadelphia, for which he should still be considered questionable.
Sat Apr 4 201519:01Nene Hilario: (Rest) Sidelined Saturday

Hilario is missing the Wizards' current back-to-back set in order to rest. In his stead, Kris Humphries should play a decent role in the frontcourt, with Drew Gooden providing support.
Fri Apr 3 201517:28Nene (rest) will not play Friday against Knicks
Nene (rest) will not play Friday against the Knicks.
Nene's absence Friday seems to be for rest purposes, as the Wizards probably feel they can handle the Knicks while affording their veteran big man a night off. With Nene sidelined, expect Kris Humphries and Drew Gooden to see more minutes at power forward.

Hilario scored 12 points (5-13 FG, 2-4 FT) to go along with seven rebounds, two assists and one block in 31 minutes Monday against Portland.
Hilario is an important part of the Wizards' lineup, but he is more valuable to the team than he is to fantasy owners because of his inconsistency. He has scored nine points or less in four of his last seven games and has grabbed four rebounds or less in three of his last six games. He can still provide some value, but might be a better option to plug into your lineup when he has a favorable matchup rather than using on a daily basis.
Mon Mar 16 201517:34Hilario will return for Monday's game against Portland
Hilario will return for Monday's game against Portland, Jorge Castillo of the Washington Post reports.
The big man missed a pair of games while tending to personal issues. As expected, he'll be back in the lineup Monday and will likely see his full complement of minutes as the Wizards seek their fourth straight win.

Hilario (personal) is expected to return to the Wizards for Monday's game against Portland, Marc Spears of Yahoo! Sports reports.
He's missed two games for a personal matter, so it remains to be seen if the Wizards will give him his usual complement of minutes as he's averaged just over 25 per game this season.
Sat Mar 14 201517:45Hilario (personal) won't play Saturday against Kings
Hilario (personal) won't play Saturday against the Kings, The Washington Post reports.
Hilario missed Thursday's game and Friday's practice due to personal reasons, and his absence has now extended into the weekend. Although he can be considered questionable for Monday's outing versus the Blazers, Drew Gooden could garner his second consecutive start at the four Saturday.
Fri Mar 13 201515:26Nene Hilario: (Personal) Not At Practice Friday
Hilario (personal reasons) was not at Friday's practice, CSN Washington's J. Michael reports.
With Kris Humphries out, the Wizards need Nene to to be back in short order, but it is not clear how much time he will miss due to this personal issue. Consider him questionable for Sunday's game, and look for Drew Gooden to fill in if he cannot play.

Hilario will miss Thursday's game against the Grizzlies for personal reasons, The Washington Post reports.
Drew Gooden will start in place of Nene for the time being. With the reason unknown for Nene's absence, he should be considered day-to-day for the time being.

Hilario (foot) returned from a one-game absence and provided 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-6 FT) in the overtime loss to the Raptors on Saturday. He played 38 minutes.
Hilario missed the loss to the Suns on Wednesday, so he was well-rested against Toronto. In his last four games, he has averaged 10.2 points and 3.8 rebounds.
Sat Jan 31 201518:47Nene Hilario: (Foot) Starting Saturday
Hilario (foot) is starting Saturday against the Raptors.
Hilario sat out the Wizards' last game Wednesday as a result of discomfort in his right foot. However, with three days between contests, he should replicate his averages of 11.1 points (on 52 percent shooting), 5.2 rebounds, two assists, and 1.2 steals in 25 minutes per outing.
Wed Jan 28 201522:04Nene Hilario: (Foot) Out Wednesday
Hilario won't play Wednesday at Phoenix due to a sore right foot.
Hilario has dealt with an array of injuries to his ankle, foot, knee, and shoulder this season, so his absence shouldn't come as much of surprise. Expect Kris Humphries to enter the starting lineup in Hilario's place.
Sun Jan 11 201518:16Hilario scored 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-2 FT), backed up by six rebo...
Hilario scored 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-2 FT), backed up by six rebounds, and a steal in 27 minutes on Sunday.
Nene has been playing at least 25 minutes a game over the month of January and is providing decent value as the starting power forward for the Wizards. He may be losing minutes to Kris Humphries and Kevin Seraphin, but he's still making the most of his time on court, albeit as the fourth or fifth option on the court. His days of big rebounding totals are behind him, but he will provide efficiency for those looking for a steady line over upside.
Wed Jan 7 201521:54Hilario scored 20 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT) with six reb...
Hilario scored 20 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-6 FT) with six rebounds, four assists and a steal in 24 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Knicks.
It's Nene's best performance since returning to the starting lineup right after Christmas, but his minutes remain limited and his fantasy utility is still restricted to deeper leagues.
Sat Jan 3 201502:08Hilario (ankle) started and scored 12 points (6-11 FG) to go wit...
Hilario (ankle) started and scored 12 points (6-11 FG) to go with one rebound, three assists, and one steal in 27 minutes against the Thunder Friday.
Hilario left the Wizards' last game, a loss to the Mavericks on Tuesday, with a sprained ankle. He was able to play through the soreness on Friday, despite having missed Thursday's practice. While his stat line is not obviously impressive, he exceeded his season average in points, assists, and field goal percentage, matched his season average in steals, and only fell short in rebounds. Hilario's modest, but consistent production lends itself well to daily games and deep leagues, but he can be safely ignored in standard leagues.
