With Alex Sarr (hamstring) sidelined, Vukčević has been the starting center when healthy. If he’s unable to go on Thursday, the Wizards will likely turn to Anthony Gill. He would only be worth a look as a deep-league streamer due to Washington’s lack of healthy frontcourt options. There would also be more minutes available to Jamir Watkins.

Vukčević is back after missing Sunday’s loss to the Hornets with a right hand contusion. His return means that Anthony Gill will come off the bench after making a spot start the last time out.

Vukčević sustained a right hand contusion on Friday, and it cost him Sunday’s matchup with the Hornets. He’ll be back in action following a one-game absence, and he should slot in as Washington’s starting center, sending Anthony Gill to the bench.

Vukčević suffered a right hand contusion during Friday’s win over the Pacers, which limited him to 20 minutes. With Alex Sarr (hamstring) also out, the Wizards will have to rely more on Anthony Gill, and Jamir Watkins’ playing time should increase as well.

Vukčević was limited to 20 minutes in Friday’s win over the Pacers, exiting due to a right hand contusion. Anthony Gill absorbed some of those minutes and would likely do so on Sunday if Vukčević can’t play. However, that does not guarantee Gill a spot start, as the Wizards went small and started Jamir Watkins the last time they were severely shorthanded in the post.

The deal includes a team option in the third year, according to Charania. Vukčević had previously been on a two-way contract. He figures to continue to work in the center rotation for Washington with most of his fantasy value coming when Alex Sarr has been out.

Vukčević, who was in the starting lineup for Friday’s game, has been ruled out for the rest of the night with a hand contusion. He played 20 minutes, finishing with 14 points (7-of-12 FGs), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal and one blocked shot. Vukčević’s absence should result in more minutes for Anthony Gill, as he’s the only other healthy big in the Wizards’ rotation.

Vukčević only played 17 minutes on Thursday, but that didn’t keep him from putting up a career-high number in the steals category. The Wizards were without Alex Sarr, who remains out with a hamstring injury, so Vukčević got another start. Hopefully, his limited playing time on Thursday ensures that Vukčević will be available for Friday’s rematch.

Vukčević did not play in the Wizards’ final game before the All-Star break, but he will be available on Thursday. He’ll figure prominently in the center rotation, likely as the starter, since Alex Sarr (hamstring) is out for at least one more week.

Vukčević popped up on the injury report Wednesday morning with an illness and was ruled out early in the afternoon. With the 22-year-old forward out and Alex Sarr (hamstring) questionable, Anthony Gill could be in line for a spot start at the center position.

Vukcevic popped up on the injury report as questionable with an illness Wednesday morning. The 22-year-old power forward played 20 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Heat. Alex Sarr figures to play more minutes if Vukcevic is ruled out against the Cavaliers.

Vukčević was in the starting lineup for Saturday’s loss to the Nets, but he only played 20 minutes. With Alex Sarr (ankle) also available, Vukčević may play even less. However, Sarr only played 18 minutes in Thursday’s win over the Pistons.

With Alex Sarr (ankle) unavailable, Vukčević started Saturday’s loss to the Nets. However, he only played 20 minutes, with veteran Anthony Gill (hand) logging 28 off the bench. If Sarr, who’s also listed as questionable, plays, there isn’t much to be gained from rostering Vukčević in fantasy leagues, even on a four-game day.

Marvin Bagley is now in Dallas, so Vukčević was the next man up with Alex Sarr (ankle) unavailable. The 7-footer’s performance was somewhat underwhelming, especially after Wizards head coach Brian Keefe felt the need to pull Vukčević from the game after an uninspired start to the third quarter. Vuk was able to get back into the game, but he only logged 20 minutes. Even on nights when Sarr isn’t available, there’s little to be gained from rostering Vukčević.

Vukčević has been out for nearly a month with a hamstring injury. With the Wizards trading Marvin Bagley III and new addition Anthony Davis out due to injury, Vukčević will likely slide into the rotation. There’s no need to roster him in fantasy leagues, but keep an eye on the third-year center. As long as he doesn’t hit his 50-game limit as a two-way player, there may be times later in the season when Vukčević plays quality minutes.

Tuesday’s game will be the sixth that Vukčević has missed due to a strained left hamstring. While his absence does not affect fantasy basketball, it does leave the Wizards down two bigs since Marvin Bagley III (back) is also out. Anthony Gill played seven minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Hornets. He is not worth streaming.

This will be a fifth straight absence for Vukčević, but that typically doesn’t impact Washington’s rotation. However, with Marvin Bagley also sidelined, Vukčević would’ve filled the backup minutes if available. That role will now fall to Anthony Gill.

Due to a sore left knee, Vukčević will not be available for Friday’s game. His absence does not affect fantasy basketball, as Alex Sarr and Marvin Bagley III will be available. Sarr was ejected during the second quarter of Wednesday’s loss to the Clippers, resulting in more minutes for Bagley, while Vukčević only played eight minutes.

Vukcevic matched a season-high in the points department, reaching double figures for the sixth time in his last nine games, falling one rebound shy of his first double-double of the year. The 22-year-old big man is a fringe fantasy option in deeper leagues with Marvin Bagley III and Alex Sarr seeing most of the frontcourt minutes.

The Wizards are without their top two centers, as Alex Sarr and Marvin Bagley III are unavailable due to injury. As a result, Vukčević moves into the starting lineup, and he’ll have deep-league fantasy value out of necessity. The other change to the lineup is Champagnie, who replaces Khris Middleton due to Sunday’s game being Washington’s second in as many nights.

With Alex Sarr (adductor) out, Vukčević has played rotation minutes as Marvin Bagley’s backup. While the consistent playing time has been good, Vukčević has not been productive enough to merit being rostered in most fantasy leagues.

Vukčević has taken on a larger role recently with Alex Sarr (adductor) sidelined. Sarr will remain out on Saturday, so if Vukčević isn’t available to play the reserve center minutes behind Marvin Bagley, Washington will likely have to utilize small-ball lineups, which could feature Anthony Gill or Justin Champagnie at center.

Vukčević has been solid off the bench lately, and he was able to play a large reserve role once again in this game with Alexandre Sarr (groin) sidelined. Sarr will remain out on Tuesday against the 76ers, so Vukčević should see a bump in minutes once again. That likely isn’t enough for him to be worth streaming in standard leagues, but in deeper formats, there should be intrigue, as well as in dynasty leagues.
