Len is available for and will play in Wednesday's game against the Jazz, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Len signed with the Lakers on Tuesday and will be active for Wednesday's contest. He'll compete with Jaxson Hayes and Trey Jemison for center minutes the rest of the season. In 36 appearances with the Kings during 2024-25, Len averaged 1.4 points and 1.8 rebounds across 7.2 minutes.

Shams Charania of ESPN reported Tuesday that Len will sign with the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Len signed a one-year, $3.31 million deal with the Kings in July of 2024, but he played only 7.2 minutes per game while serving in a rotational role at center. He was traded by Sacramento last Thursday to Washington and was subsequently waived. Earlier reports indicated that he would ink a deal with the Pacers for the rest of the season, but Len will instead head to Los Angeles to play alongside LeBron James, Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves. With the Lakers' trade for Mark Williams being rescinded Saturday, Len should see some meaningful minutes off the bench as the backup center behind Jaxson Hayes.

The Pacers will not sign Len to a deal, Dustin Dopirak of The Indianapolis Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Len was expected to sign a one-year pact with the Pacers upon clearing waivers; however, he will remain a free agent for the time being. The big man was traded from the Kings to the Wizards before having been waived by Washington on Saturday. The 31-year-old is a candidate to latch on with a team lacking depth in the frontcourt.

Len is set to be waived by the Wizards on Saturday and is expected to sign with the Pacers, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Len was part of a three-team trade Thursday that saw him being sent from the Kings to the Wizards. Len could still be claimed off waivers by another team, but assuming he isn't he intends to join Indiana to serve as a depth center behind Myles Turner (neck) and Thomas Bryant. Len didn't see much playing time off the Kings' bench, averaging 1.4 points and 1.8 rebounds over 7.2 minutes per game before being traded.

Len (recently traded) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Len will have to wait to make his Wizards debut after being traded to Washington on Thursday. The big man will likely compete for playing time off the bench behind rookie center Alex Sarr (ankle), and Len's next chance to feature will come Saturday against the Hawks.

The Wizards are acquiring Len from the Kings as part of the three-team trade centered around Marcus Smart, NBA reporter Marc Stein reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Wizards also dealing Jonas Valanciunas and Marvin Bagley ahead of Thursday's deadline, Len is set to compete with Richaun Holmes and Tristan Vukcevic for backup center minutes behind rookie Alex Sarr (ankle). However, Len played just 7.2 minutes per game over 36 appearances (three starts) with Sacramento this season, so his addition is unlikely to cause major waves in Washington's rotation.

Len produced one rebound across five minutes during Monday's 110-96 win over the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Len failed to score for the third straight game, continuing what has been another disappointing season. At this point, he is not an every-night part of the rotation, having played a combined 14 minutes in the past four games. With averages of just 1.6 points and 1.9 rebounds, the outlook is far from positive.

Len is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Interim head coach Doug Christie announced he won't change the starting lineup for his debut, so Len will head back to the bench due to the return of Domantas Sabonis (illness). Len is averaging 7.2 minutes per game across 23 games (three starts), so he's not likely to affect many fantasy decisions regardless of his role.

Len will start Thursday's game against the Pistons at center, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
EDGE Analysis
Len will enter the starting lineup for the third time with season while Domantas Sabonis (illness) sits out Thursday evening. Len's last start dates back to Nov. 18 against the Hawks, when he logged two points, three rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 17 minutes.

Len totaled two points (1-2 FG) and one assist in four minutes during Friday's 140-113 win over the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
Len was back in the rotation, albeit for just four minutes. Domantas Sabonis was forced to the locker room with a facial injury, meaning Len was called upon early in the contest. Sabonis was able to return to the court quite quickly, bringing Len's night to an end. Given he has played a total of just 15 minutes in the past two weeks, it is clear Len is on the outside looking in when it comes to regular rotation minutes.
