Gill is on the injury report with lower back spasms. His availability doesn’t affect fantasy basketball, as he hasn’t been in the Wizards’ rotation.

Gill, who appeared in 55 games in 2025-26, returns to Washington for a seventh season. He averaged nearly 18 minutes in those 55 appearances, contributing 5.8 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game. While Gill will once again be a positive influence within the Wizards’ locker room, he’s unlikely to get the opportunities needed to impact fantasy basketball.

Gill is good to go for Sunday’s season finale after being injured during Friday’s loss to the Heat. While he has started games recently, Julian Reese has been the more productive option, as the rookie has played more minutes.

In addition to his back injury, Gill took a shot to the head during Friday’s loss to the Heat. While the veteran forward/center was not officially ruled out at the time, he’s dealing with a headache, so Gill is on the injury report. Julian Reese has been productive recently and is worth rostering in active fantasy leagues, regardless of Gill’s availability.

Gill will be in the Wizards’ rotation on Thursday, but the playing time may be limited. He logged 16 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Bulls, with Julian Reese playing 36. The rookie forward/center may be the safer option for fantasy managers in active leagues.

Gill started Tuesday’s loss to the Bulls, but a cervical lumbar contusion limited him to 16 minutes. Julian Reese, who also started on Tuesday, logged 36 minutes. He may have to take on an even heavier workload, as the Wizards remain without Alex Sarr and Tristan Vukčević.

The Wizards are without Tristan Vukčević and Alex Sarr for Saturday’s game. As a result, Gill will start at center, with Julian Reese as his backup. That’s the lone change to the lineup that started Wednesday’s loss to the 76ers.

Not only did Gill finish Wednesday’s defeat with a career-high point total, but this was his first 20-point game as a pro. The veteran forward/center logged 35 minutes off the bench and was highly accurate shooting the basketball. Add in the rebounds and assists, and this was an excellent night for Gill. However, this changes nothing regarding his fantasy outlook for the rest of Week 23. He should remain on the waiver wire in most leagues.

Gill’s status was upgraded to available ahead of Monday’s contest after previously being listed as questionable with an ankle injury. The sixth-year center has played well recently, posting double-digit scoring performances in three of his last five games. He’ll have a chance to put forth another high-scoring performance against the Lakers.

Gill will return to the lineup following a two-game absence. Julian Reese has started with Gill sidelined, though that could change with Gill available. Regardless, neither should be rostered outside of the deepest of leagues.

Gill has missed Washington’s last two games with an illness. With Tristan Vukčević also out, undrafted rookie Julian Reese has filled in as the starting center. While he isn’t worth the risk in most fantasy leagues, Reese will play plenty if Gills remains out.

Gill will join Alex Sarr, Anthony Davis, Tristan Vukčević, Kyshawn George and Jamir Watkins on the sideline. Washington’s frontcourt rotation is decimated by injuries, so Julian Reese could earn a second start in as many days.

With Tristan Vukčević (thigh) already out, the Wizards will be severely shorthanded in the post on Monday. Justin Champagnie and Jamir Watkins should play more, with one likely moving into the starting lineup. And this could be a big night for those who have Houston’s Alperen Şengün on their fantasy rosters.

George is back after missing Friday’s win over the Pacers, and he will step in for Justin Champagnie, who is out with a knee injury. The other change is Gill, with the Charlotte native starting for the injured Tristan Vukčević (hand).

Gill has played at least 28 minutes in three of his last four appearances, and Thursday’s was one of his best. The veteran forward/center finished a steal shy of a complete stat line, shooting 66.7 percent from the field. Given the playing time, Gill may not be available for Friday’s rematch. At the very least, he’s unlikely to play as much if available, especially with starter Tristan Vukčević being limited to 17 minutes.

Gill was initially listed as questionable with a hand injury, but has since been ruled in for Wednesday’s game against the Cavaliers. With Tristan Vukčević (illness) already ruled out and Alex Sarr (hamstring) now questionable, the 33-year-old power forward could be in line for a spot start.

Gill was held out of Sunday’s loss to the Heat, as he suffered a sprained hand the day prior. If the veteran forward/center can play, don’t be surprised if the Wizards cut starting center Alex Sarr’s playing time, as they did in Thursday’s win over the Pistons.

Gill will sit out Sunday’s game with a right hand contusion, leaving the Wizards down a frontcourt option off the bench. If Alex Sarr (ankle) and Tristan Vukčević (knee) can play, the Wizards should be fine in terms of their frontcourt depth.

Gill has played between 27 and 30 minutes in three of Washington’s last four games, with his playing time dictated mainly by the availability of starter Alex Sarr (ankle). With the second-year center also listed as questionable, Gill could be in for another heavy workload if he plays, but Sarr doesn’t.

The backup big man has seen increased run as of late, but he’s not on the radar in fantasy leagues due to the availability of Alex Sarr and Marvin Bagley III.
