The Wizards will be light on options for Sunday’s season finale, especially on the perimeter. The absence of Coulibaly and Johnson will mean more opportunities for Will Riley and Leaky Black. As for Vukčević, his continued absence does not change much in the frontcourt, with the Wizards continuing to rely on Julian Reese.

Back in the lineup after missing Thursday’s loss to the Bulls, Coulibaly recorded his first stat line this season with at least 25 points, five rebounds and five assists. Given the Wizards’ many young wings and the fact that they’ll likely hold onto their top-8 protected first-round pick, Coulibaly will face significant competition for rotation minutes when training camp opens next fall. Nights like Friday can only strengthen his case for a starting spot.

Coulibaly, who has been dealing with bursitis in his right heel for a few games, played 25 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Heat. Leaky Black and Jamir Watkins should see their roles expand, especially with Tre Johnson and Julian Champagnie also out.

Coulibaly, who continues to deal with bursitis in his right heel, played 25 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Heat. If he can’t go in Brooklyn, Justin Champagnie could move into the starting lineup. However, Champagnie is also considered questionable due to a right knee contusion.

Coulibaly’s percentages weren’t very good, but he did provide fantasy managers with good value in the defensive categories. The five contributions on that end of the floor were the most in a game for him since March 22, when Bilal recorded three steals and two blocks in a loss to the Knicks. Washington plays once more in Week 23, as they host the Nets on Sunday. We’ll see what the injury report looks like, but Coulibaly’s lingering heel issue may keep him out.

Coulibaly and Johnson are good to go after being considered questionable for Saturday’s game. Both are starters, but the playing time may be a concern. In Wednesday’s loss to the 76ers, Coulibaly played 19 minutes and Johnson played 24. Fantasy managers will hope that both play more in the Wizards’ penultimate game of Week 23.

While he was available for Wednesday’s loss to the 76ers, the Wizards’ wing only played 19 minutes. Jaden Hardy and Justin Champagnie are two players whose minutes may increase if Coulibaly sits.

Coulibaly will be back following a one-game absence on Monday. Will Riley started that game, so he will likely return to the bench for this one, though he should still take on a large role as a reserve.

Coulibaly was sidelined against the Lakers on Monday, which was the second night of a back-to-back. He could return to take on Philadelphia, which would push Will Riley back to the bench, though he should still play a large role as a reserve.

Coulibaly has been dealing with a recurring heel injury, and it could keep him out for Monday’s road tilt at crypto.com Arena. If Coulibaly is forced to miss this one, Will Riley and Tre Johnson could earn some additional playing time. Gill’s availability is not impactful in the world of fantasy basketball, as Alex Sarr and Tristan Vukčević are both healthy.

Coulibaly and Black started Friday’s loss to the Warriors, but the former was limited to 19 minutes. With Tre Johnson out, Black could be asked to log heavy minutes once again if allowed to play. If both players sit, Will Riley and Justin Champagnie will receive boosts to their respective fantasy values.

Coulibaly had a strong scoring effort in this game, though he was limited to 19 minutes and didn’t play the final 18 minutes of this game. He has certainly shown some scoring prowess in recent weeks, though his minutes have been limited as Washington continues to prioritize improved lottery odds. Coulibaly should be an intriguing option in fantasy drafts next season, but his impact for the rest of this year will be limited.

Coulibaly will be good to go despite initially being listed as questionable. He has averaged 19.2 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.4 steals, 1.4 blocks and 2.6 triples per game over his last five appearances and will look to stay hot in this one.

Coulibaly has played through the heel injury during their last two games, but he missed the two games prior to that. He has been effective when available, but against a fellow tanking team, there is a good chance Justin Champagnie ends up getting the start in place of Coulibaly.

Coulibaly has scored at least 21 points in three of his last four outings, and he’s reached double figures in five straight. Regarding all-around value, Saturday’s performance was one of his best this season.

Coulibaly will remain sidelined for a second straight game with this heel injury. Originally, it was just the second leg of a back-to-back, but another absence is more concerning. Justin Champagnie should be in line for another start.

Coulibaly posted a 21/8/4/1 line in Monday’s loss to Golden State, but he’ll sit out the second leg of the Wizards’ back-to-back home set while dealing with a heel injury. Coulibaly’s absence should mean more run for Will Riley, especially with Leaky Black (ankle) also out of action.

Coulibaly finished Monday’s defeat with his fourth 20-point game of the season, and he was highly efficient in doing so. Shooting 45.2 percent from the field, the Wizards’ wing has provided 10th-round value in eight-cat formats since the All-Star break. That may not be elite value, but it may get Coulibaly on the radar of more deep-league managers, especially if he can continue to play starters’ minutes more often than not.

One game removed from being on the wrong end of a historic performance by Miami’s Bam Adebayo, the Wizards bounced back with a solid effort in Orlando. Coulibaly, whose banked-in three-pointer with five seconds remaining in regulation sent the game into overtime, led the way. His 29 points were a career-high, with the Wizards’ wing recording a complete stat line. Scoring hasn’t been Coulibaly’s best attribute, so fantasy managers should not expect Thursday’s effort to become the norm. However, there should be more room for him to put up numbers as the Wizards close out their season.

While Coulibaly has reached double figures in seven of his last eight appearances, Monday’s defeat was one of his most productive performances of the season. The Wizards wing finished with a season-high in points, recording his second 20-point game. Coulibaly did play both games of Washington’s last back-to-back, which may bode well for his availability for Tuesday’s game in Orlando.

None of the Wizards’ five starters exceeded 23 minutes on Saturday, with Coulibaly leading the way in that category. He was productive in those 23 minutes, but the Wizards’ rotation continues to be a frustrating one for fantasy managers to fill out. Coulibaly hasn’t been the best fantasy option this season, and it’s fair to question if that changes in the final six weeks of the regular season. With Washington’s four-game Week 19 beginning with a back-to-back, there isn’t much to gain from picking up Coulibaly.

The 21-year-old shooting guard could’ve had a big game, but with the game in hand after three quarters none of the starters played in the fourth quarter. Coulibaly has provided top-100 per game value over the last two weeks. The Wizards have three games upcoming in Week 18, starting with a matchup against the Hawks on Tuesday.
