Sarr (back) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr may miss a second straight game due to lower back soreness, which also cost the rookie two games earlier in December. If Sarr remains sidelined, Jonas Valanciunas would likely stick in the starting lineup.

Sarr (back) is out for Monday's game against the Thunder, Varun Shankar of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr will miss Monday's contest with a back issue. This is not the first time the rookie has been dealing with this injury, as he missed two games earlier this month with the same issue. Sarr's absence will likely translate to a bigger role for Jonas Valanciunas.

Sarr is questionable for Monday's game against the Thunder due to lower back soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr has played in four straight games for the Wizards, but it appears his back has flared up on him again -- he missed the opening two games of December with this injury. If he's unable to play Monday, Jonas Valanciunas will likely step into a much larger role for the Wizards.

Sarr produced 19 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-8 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and three blocks across 33 minutes during Thursday's 123-114 win over the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr has now scored double-digit points in five straight outings. While the rookie big man is still struggling with his efficiency on the season, he is shooting 40.9 percent on 4.4 three-point attempts per contest over that stretch. Sarr is still raw in his scoring ability, but his average of 1.9 blocks per game this season displays his elite rim-protection upside.

Sarr (back) amassed 14 points (6-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 27 minutes during Friday's 115-105 loss to the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Making his return to Washington's starting lineup after a two-game absence due to a back injury, Sarr supplied the Wizards with a full stat line and didn't appear to be facing any type of minute restrictions Friday. It's been an up-and-down rookie season thus far for the 2024 No. 2 overall pick, but he's been solid over his last seven games, averaging 13.1 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.4 blocks, 0.9 steals and 1.7 three-pointers per contest. The 19-year-old big man is still searching for his identity on offense in the NBA, but Sarr remains a strong source of blocks for fantasy managers going forward.

Sarr (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies.

Sarr (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr is dealing with soreness in his lower back. He'll be held out for Saturday's contest, and it's not clear whether the rookie center will be available for the Wizards' second-leg of a back-to-back Sunday against the Grizzlies. With Sarr sidelined for Saturday's game, Jonas Valanciunas will likely slide into the Wizards' starting lineup while Marvin Bagley sees more playing time in a reserve role.

Sarr (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
The No. 2 overall pick of the 2024 NBA Draft is working through lower back soreness, and his official status for Saturday's contest might not be known until he goes through pregame warmups. If Sarr is unable to play, Jonas Valanciunas would likely start at center while Marvin Bagley sees an uptick in playing time off the bench. Over his last five games, Sarr has averaged 12.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.4 blocks over 28.8 minutes per game.
