Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Another subpar display
Kuzma ended Sunday's 123-100 loss to the Kings with 13 points (3-15 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal in 33 minutes.
Kuzma has entrenched himself in a starting role now that his rib injury is in the rearview, but his performances have been a bit inconsistent from a statistical perspective. He's failed to reach the 15-point mark in four of his last six outings, averaging 12.2 points per game and shooting 34.3 percent from the floor in that stretch.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Puts up 22 points Saturday
Kuzma closed Saturday's 122-114 loss to the Warriors with 22 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds and four assists over 31 minutes.
Jordan Poole led the way for the Wizards with a 38-point effort, but Kuzma was among the top performers for Washington with an efficient scoring display. The veteran returned to a starting role Jan. 3 following a lengthy absence due to a ribs injury and has been productive, albeit a bit inconsistent. In nine starts since returning to the hardwood, the Kuzma is averaging 14.2 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.1 steals per game while shooting 45.6 percent from the floor.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Solid outing in defeat
Kuzma racked up 22 points (9-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-4 FT), five rebounds, five assists and three steals over 35 minutes during Monday's 120-106 loss to the Timberwolves.
Kuzma delivered a solid bounce-back performance after totaling 11 points on 3-for-18 shooting across his last two outings. The eighth-year forward led the Wizards in scoring Monday, tying Anthony Edwards and Naz Reid for the game-high mark in steals as well. Kuzma also logged just his second game through 21 regular-season appearances with 20-plus points, five or more rebounds and at least five assists, as he stuffed the stat sheet in the losing effort.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Plays poorly in loss
Kuzma closed with six points (2-12 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Sunday's 136-95 loss to the Thunder.
Kuzma posted his second dud in a row, as he's now scored 11 points over that span on a combined 3-for-18 shooting from the field. The Wizards have lost six games in a row and have a 6-31 record on the season, and it's no secret that Kuzma has been linked with a move elsewhere.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Cleared to play Wednesday
Kuzma (calf) is available for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.
Kuzma exited Tuesday's game against Houston with a calf bruise and didn't return, but he's cleared to play on the second half of Washington's back-to-back Wednesday. Over five games since returning from a rib injury, the star forward has averaged 13.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.6 threes in 23.8 minutes. Kuzma wouldn't figure to have any limitations on his playing time against the 76ers.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Iffy for Wednesday
Kuzma (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.
Kuzma didn't play in the second half of Tuesday's blowout loss to the Rockets due to a right calf contusion and may be sidelined for the second half of Washington's back-to-back set. Carlton Carrington (back) and Alexandre Sarr (illness) are also questionable, while Marvin Bagley (knee), Malcolm Brogdon (foot) and Jordan Poole (hip) have all been ruled out already.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Leaves early with calf bruise
Kuzma recorded 10 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 17 minutes in Tuesday's 135-109 loss to the Rockets before sitting out the entire second half with a right calf contusion.
Coming out of halftime, Kuzma was initially deemed out for the remainder of Tuesday's contest due to the calf injury but was subsequently upgraded to questionable. However, Kuzma didn't end up taking the floor at all during the second half, and his status for Wednesday's matchup with Philadelphia is uncertain. Justin Champagnie replaced Kuzma to begin the second half and would likely start Wednesday if Kuzma can't play.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Now deemed questionable to return
After initially ruling Kuzma (calf) out for the remainder of Tuesday's game versus the Rockets, he is now deemed questionable to return, Varun Shankar of The Washington Post reports.
Kuzma left Tuesday's contest after logging 17 minutes of action due to a right calf contusion. While it now appears that Kuzma could return to action against Houston, at the very least, it is a good sign that he has avoided a serious injury.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Won't return Tuesday
Kuzma will not return to Tuesday's matchup against the Rockets due to a right calf contusion, Varun Shankar of The Washington Post reports. He'll finish the game with 10 points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal across 17 minutes.
Kuzma will not return for the second half of Tuesday's contest, and his availability for the second leg of the club's back-to-back set Wednesday against the 76ers is now in jeopardy. If the star forward remains sidelined Tuesday, Kyshawn George and Justin Champagnie are candidates for an uptick in playing time.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Explodes for season-high 28 points
Kuzma posted 28 points (13-23 FG, 2-5 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 31 minutes during Sunday's 110-98 loss to the Pelicans.
It was Kuzma's best performance since returning from a rib injury and one of his finest overall this season, as the forward tallied a season-high 28 points to go with a full stat line Sunday. Over his last four games (two starts), Kuzma is averaging 14.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.3 steals in 25.6 minutes. The 29-year-old's 31 minutes against the Pelicans were also his most since he rejoined Washington's lineup, so whatever minutes restrictions Kuzma may have had appear to have loosened.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Posts 14 points in Friday's start
Kuzma finished with 14 points (7-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal in 28 minutes during Friday's 132-120 loss to New Orleans.
Making his first start since Nov. 27 and seeing his biggest workload in three games since returning from a rib issue, Kuzma provided modest production. The 29-year-old forward's numbers on the season are well off his usual pace, which has suppressed his trade value, but Kuzma still has time to to build a case that he can help a contender prior to the Feb. 6 trade deadline.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Back in starting lineup
Kuzma is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Pelicans.
The Wizards will be without Bilal Coulibaly (illness), so Kuzma will return to the starting lineup for the first time since returning to action after a 12-game absence due to a rib injury. Kuzma's previous start came Nov. 27 in a loss to the Clippers. He's averaging 15.8 points per game in a starting role in 2024-25.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Coming off bench again
Kuzma is not part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Chicago.
Kuzma played 21 minutes off the bench Monday in his return from a 12-game absence and will remain out of the starting lineup Wednesday. Kuzma shouldn't be expected to see a much larger workload against the Bulls, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the power forward push for 25 minutes. Justin Champagnie remains in the starting five.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Quiet in return Monday
Kuzma (rib) racked up nine points (4-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal in 21 minutes during Monday's 126-106 loss to New York.
Making his way back from a 12-game absence due to a left rib sprain, Kuzma came off the bench so that the Wizards could better manage his minutes. In his return, Kuzma delivered a typical performance, focusing on scoring while struggling to deliver in the peripheral categories. Assuming he can stay healthy, he should be back in the starting lineup sooner rather than later while taking on a 30-plus-minute role in competitive contests.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Returning in reserve role
Kuzma is not in the Wizards' starting lineup against the Knicks on Monday.
Kuzma has missed the last 12 games due to a sprained rib cartilage, so it's no surprise that the Wizards will bring on the veteran forward slowly in his return. Justin Champagnie will remain in the Wizards' starting five.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Expected to play Monday
Coach Brian Keefe said Kuzma (ribs) is expected to play Monday against the Knicks, Varun Shankar of The Washington Post reports.
All signs point to Kuzma returning to the Wizards' lineup Monday when they face the Knicks, as the star forward isn't listed on the injury report. Kuzma missed the last 12 games while dealing with the injury to his ribs and should give Washington a big boost offensively. He's averaged 15.8 points per game while playing only 12 games this season for Washington.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Past rib injury
Kuzma (ribs) was not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Knicks.
Kuzma has been out of action for the Wizards' last 12 games due to a sprained rib cartilage, but his absence from Sunday's injury report indicates that he will be available to play against the Knicks on Monday. In the 11 games prior to suffering the injury in late November, Kuzma had averaged 17.3 points, 5.9 rebounds and 2.0 assists over 29.2 minutes per contest.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Targeting Monday return
The Wizards and Kuzma (ribs) are targeting Monday's game against the Knicks as a potential return date for the forward, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Kuzma has missed 12 straight games due to sprained rib cartilage but is nearing a return to game action. His official status for Monday's contest will be released Sunday afternoon, but even if he draws a questionable tag, Kuzma is trending in the right direction and will likely be a game-time decision against the Knicks.

Kuzma (ribs) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Knicks.

Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Won't play Thursday
Kuzma (ribs) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Hornets.
Kuzma hasn't played since suffering a left rib sprain during a Nov. 27 loss to the Clippers. Justin Champagnie should continue to see an increased role in Kuzma's absence, while the latter's next chance to suit up will come Saturday against the Knicks.
