Whitmore has not played consistent rotation minutes for the Wizards this season, but he’s been active for the last few games with a shoulder injury. Unfortunately, he has been diagnosed with a deep vein thrombosis in his shoulder and is out indefinitely. Victor Wembanyama dealt with a similar injury last season, and the Spurs declared him out for the rest of the year after the All-Star break.

Whitmore will be in the Wizards’ rotation on Saturday, but the role does not lend itself to fantasy managers deriving worthwhile value. Even with Khris Middleton unavailable, don’t expect Whitmore’s role to change too much.

Whitmore’s limited role off the bench hasn’t resulted in much fantasy production this season. If he were to miss a game for the first time this year, Jamir Watkins and Malaki Branham would likely see a bump in minutes, though there wouldn’t be a clear streaming option based on Whitmore’s absence.

Whitmore didn’t play a ton in this one, but he still managed to make a sizeable impact, shooting 70 percent from the floor and grabbing seven rebounds to reach the 20-point mark for just the second time this season. The 21-year-old former first-round pick’s upside is limited by his reduced role in Washington at the moment.

Since scoring 14 points in the season opener, Whitmore has only scored in double figures once and hasn’t played a significant role. However, he was able to contribute off the bench in this game and set a new season-high for points. Still, outside of the buckets, he only contributed three boards. That’s it. Whitmore is a talented scorer, but until he is able to contribute in other areas, his upside and minutes will both be limited.

The Athletic’s Josh Robbins reports it will be a 2026 second rounder from Chicago and a 2029 second round from Sacramento that will be headed back to the Rockets, who needed to recoup what assets they could from the No. 20 overall pick in 2023. Whitmore showcased some scoring upside during his two seasons in Houston and will now be the latest upside swing to land with the Wizards. He’ll join a rotation that features recent first-round picks like Kyshawn George, Bilal Coulibaly and Will Riley, as well as a veteran in Khris Middleton.

Once again, the Rockets decided to rest four starters, and Jalen Green (7/4/3/1 with one three-pointer) was shut down at halftime. Having secured the two-seed in the West, the Rockets have prioritized rest for their key players. The approach has freed additional minutes for Whitmore, who could not earn consistent playing time this season. The former first-round pick was rolling on Friday, shooting well over 50 percent from the field and recording a career-high point total. Fantasy managers in active leagues seeking a player who could potentially go off on Sunday should look no further than Whitmore, especially if the Rockets hold their starters out of the matchup with the Nuggets.

Whitmore was excellent on Monday, matching his career-high with 27 points and recording his second double-double of the season. The Rockets were down four starters on Monday, so ample rotation minutes (and a place in the starting lineup) were available to Whitmore. Give him credit for taking advantage of the opportunity. Whitmore’s fantasy value moving forward will be impacted by the availability of Tari Eason and Amen Thompson, who both sat out Monday’s game.
