Thu Mar 2110:01Kyle Kuzma Available On Thursday
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) isn't on the injury report ahead of Thursday's encounter with the Kings. He's been absent for a pair of games with a shoulder injury but appears to be ready to rejoin the action in a favorable fantasy matchup. Deni Avdija (knee) is questionable for the game, meaning Kuzma could be the only regular starter in the lineup. He's set to do a lot of heavy lifting offensively, along with Jordan Poole. Kuzma produced 27 points, eight rebounds, and one block in 29 minutes against Sacramento in this season's first head-to-head meeting between the teams.

Tue Mar 1918:31Kyle Kuzma Sits Out Tuesday's Action
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) won't play on Tuesday against Houston. He misses a second consecutive contest after being initially regarded as questionable for the game. With the entire regular starting five out again on Tuesday, the stage is set for the likes of Justin Champagnie and Patrick Baldwin Jr. to shine once more, while Jordan Poole should be gunning from everywhere. He needed just 23 minutes of action last time out against Boston to produce 31 points.

Mon Mar 1820:21Kyle Kuzma Uncertain For Tuesday
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) is considered questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. Kuzma was forced to miss Sunday's game and is in danger of missing his second straight contest. Given the Wizards place in the standings, Kuzma seems more likely to sit out of this game. Washington doesn't have any incentive to play Kuzma at anything less than 100 percent healthy. Patrick Baldwin Jr. would likely move into the starting five if Kuzma is unable to play. Baldwin doesn't offer enough upside to warrant streaming in most fantasy formats.

Sun Mar 1716:40Kyle Kuzma Won't Play On Sunday
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) will sit out Sunday's contest against Boston. Kuzma had 11 points with five rebounds and four assists in 29 minutes against Chicago on Saturday but landed on the injury report with left shoulder soreness. He was initially listed as questionable for Sunday's game, but Wizards head coach Brian Keefe has now confirmed that Kuzma will miss the action. With Deni Avdija (knee) also out, this could turn into a Jordan Poole special on Sunday, while there will also be a lot of shots available to Corey Kispert.

Wed Feb 2123:15Kyle Kuzma Removed From Injury Report
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma is no longer on the team's official injury report after missing their last game right before the All-Star break. The 28-year-old only had to miss one game, so fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that his 21.8 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 4.2 assists per game return on Thursday. Kuzma has been a great source of stats in fantasy leagues, but it hasn't translated to actual wins for the Wizards so far during his DC tenure. In total stats, he ranks inside the top 100 for nine-category leagues and is just barely outside of it in terms of per-game value. Either way, he's worth starting whenever he's not on the injury report.

Wed Feb 719:06Kyle Kuzma Back In Starting Five
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) is making his return to the court during Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Kuzma is back after sitting out of Sunday's game due to a shoulder issue. The expectation is that he'll have his normal workload during Wednesday's game. Bilal Coulibaly will head back to the second unit with Kuzma returning for this game. Coulibaly should still be able to carry deep league value even coming off the bench.

Wed Feb 715:49Kyle Kuzma Off Wednesday’s Injury Report
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) isn't listed on the team's injury report leading into Wednesday's contest versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. Following a full practice on Tuesday, per The Athletic's Josh Robbins, Kuzma is good to go after sitting out Sunday's blowout loss to the Phoenix Suns due to soreness in his left shoulder. The 28-year-old's defensive shortcomings cap his upside in category leagues, but Kuzma is hovering around fantasy's top 50 in points formats on averages of 21.8 points, 6.5 boards, 4.3 assists, and 2.2 threes in 31.5 minutes across 48 games for Washington this season. With Cleveland's towering frontcourt tandem of Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley back at full strength, Kuzma's matchup on Wednesday is a daunting one.

Sun Feb 400:02Kyle Kuzma Out Against Phoenix
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) is sidelined ahead of Sunday's game versus Phoenix. Kuzma logged 36 minutes on Friday night against the Miami Heat. He entered Saturday carrying a questionable tag. However, his sore shoulder will keep him off the floor for the meeting with the Suns. With Tyus Jones (ankle) and Bilal Coulibaly (back) questionable and Marvin Bagley III (concussion) out, Jordan Poole, Deni Avdija, and Daniel Gafford could see more scoring chances. At the same time, Corey Kispert, who had 26 points on Friday night, is likely to be a popular DFS option, regardless if Jones and Coulibaly are available.

Tue Dec 26 202317:44Kyle Kuzma Off Injury Report Against Magic
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (knee) is not listed on the team's injury report for Tuesday against the Orlando Magic after leaving early on Friday against the Golden State Warriors with soreness in his right knee. Kuzma said after Friday's contest that he expected to play in this one, indicating that the issue was of minimal concern in the first place. The 28-year-old offensive-minded forward will be looking to rebound after scoring a season-low seven points on 3-of-11 shooting from the field in 25 minutes against Golden State. Overall, Kuzma is averaging a points-league-friendly 23.0 points, 6.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 2.4 three-pointers with limited defensive numbers while not missing a game yet for the 5-23 Wizards this year. There's unlikely to be a minutes restriction for Kuzma on Tuesday, but we'll see if he makes his way back on Washington's injury report on Wednesday's second leg of a back-to-back.

Wed Oct 25 202315:45Kyle Kuzma Cleared For Opener
The Washington Wizards have removed forward Kyle Kuzma (calf) from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Indiana Pacers. Kuzma couldn't play in the Wizards' final two preseason games with a calf contusion, but lit it up in the two exhibition contests he did participate in. The 28-year-old scored 41 points on 15-of-26 shooting with eight rebounds and five assists in 44 combined preseason minutes this fall. Kuzma is slated to share the bulk of Washington's offensive burdens with the incoming Jordan Poole, and he ultimately looks like a points-league preference. Kuzma averaged 22.3 points, 9.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 3.3 three-pointers in three games against Indy last season, and Wednesday's contest features a slate-high 235.5-point implied total.

Tue Jun 20 202318:12Kyle Kuzma Declines His Player Option
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma is declining his $13 million player option, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. The possibility of returning to Washington is still on the table at a higher price tag, but he will enter free agency as one of the premier names in an otherwise not-so-great player pool. Last season, the 27-year-old averaged a career-high 21.2 points per game while adding 7.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists per contest.

Mon Apr 10 202319:06Wizards Want To Keep Kyle Kuzma
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma is most likely going to be a free agent this summer. He does have a $13 million player option for next season, but he'll likely decline that. Kuzma had a breakout season in Washington this year, so he should be able to easily get more than $13 million per season in free agency. That being said, the Wizards front office has made it their main goal to re-sign Kuzma and Kristaps Porzingis. Between the two, Kuzma is likely going to be the more difficult player to keep. He averaged a career-high 21.2 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.7 assists in 64 games with Washington. The only way he'll stay in Washington is if the Wizards give him a hefty extension.

Mon Apr 3 202323:51Kyle Kuzma Sitting Again Versus Milwaukee
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) remains out on Tuesday versus Milwaukee. After this one, the Wizards have three games remaining in the 2022-23 campaign, so he probably won't see any more action this season. With Bradley Beal (knee), Kristaps Porzingis (illness), and Monte Morris (ankle) also out, Deni Avdija, Corey Kispert, Delon Wright, and Johnny Davis are all playable DFS options, despite the tough matchup.

Mon Mar 27 202322:18Kyle Kuzma Remains Out Versus Boston
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) won't play on Tuesday against Boston, marking his fifth consecutive absence.

As a result, fantasy managers may not see Kuzma on the floor for the remainder of the 2022-23 campaign. That said, Bradley Beal (knee) is also out versus the Celtics, meaning Deni Avdija and Corey Kispert should continue to see an uptick in scoring. Of course, Kristaps Porzingis will remain the primary offensive option.

Corey Kispert and Deni Avdija will be asked to play additional minutes with Kuzma sidelined. Both players have some streaming appeal with Kuzma out.

Sun Mar 19 202312:07Kyle Kuzma Scores Game-High 33 Points Versus Sacramento
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma led all scorers with a 33-point effort in Saturday's 132-118 loss to Sacramento. A knee issue forced him to leave the game for a bit, but the injury apparently didn't have much effect on Kuzma's performance. He shot 12-for-23 from the field with a 4-for-11 record from deep, while also posting seven rebounds, three assists and one steal without committing a single turnover. Kristaps Porzingis (illness) was out and it definitely helped Kuzma on his way. He has seen a few more shots in each game without Porzingis and has pushed his scoring average to 25.0 points in those games this season.

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (knee) has been downgraded from questionable to out on Tuesday. The 27-year-old seems to be dealing with some wear and tear type of soreness in his right knee and will get a rest day likely due to the fact that they're playing the 16-53 Detroit Pistons. While he's watching from the sidelines, Deni Avdija will probably see an uptick in minutes and Corey Kispert could even see some more opportunities. The former would be a stronger streaming option if needed.
