Mouhamed Gueye could be pushed into the starting lineup out of necessity. Getting to start would make Gueye worthy of a look in deep leagues, which has not been the case when he’s come off the bench.

Washington selected Riley with the 21st pick in June, but he hasn’t seen the floor much during his rookie season. However, he 26 minutes in Tuesday’s blowout loss, which led to him setting a new career high for scoring.

With Khris Middleton sidelined for the second night of Washington’s back-to-back, Champagnie was able to get the starting nod. In just 24 minutes, Champagnie was able to turn in a full stat line and was one of seven Wizards to score in double figures. Middleton should be back to take on Boston on Thursday, but Champagnie will be a decent streaming option if he gets the chance to start in the future.

Bagley started a second straight game with Alex Sarr (groin) sidelined once again. He wasn’t able to match his 22 points from Monday’s game, but he was able to match his career high of five blocks, which he initially set in his fourth NBA game in 2018. Bagley wasn’t the only player to benefit from Sarr’s absence; Tristan Vukcevic chipped in 16 points off the bench for a second straight game, which was enough to lead to the Wizards in scoring in this one. If Sarr remains out against the Celtics on Thursday, both Bagley and Vukcevic will have some streaming appeal.
