Sarr amassed seven points (2-5 FG, 2-3 3PT, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one block in 21 minutes during Friday's 113-95 preseason win over Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr shifted to center with Jonas Valanciunas moving back to the bench. Despite having the height to fill the center role, Sarr is yet to fully develop physically, meaning the power forward spot is likely his preferred position. There is no indication this was anything other than a preseason experiment, meaning Sarr should begin the regular season at the four.

Sarr compiled 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-6 3PT), nine rebounds, three assists and three blocks in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 117-94 preseason loss to the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr put together another impressive performance, albeit with some inefficient shooting. Across two preseason contests, he has been the standout player for Washington despite two heavy losses. Sarr should be viewed as a viable late-round fantasy target given his presumed role as the starting power forward.

Sarr tallied 15 points (6-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt), four assists, three rebounds and one block across 22 minutes during Sunday's 125-98 preseason loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
The No. 2 overall pick was the second-leading scorer for the Wizards on Sunday behind Jordan Poole (16). Sarr had some shooting struggles during the Summer League, but he was efficient in the preseason opener. Sarr should be starting in the frontcourt alongside Jonas Valanciunas and Kyle Kuzma to start the 2024-25 campaign.

The Wizards ruled Sarr out for Saturday's Summer League game against the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
It's not expected that Sarr is dealing with an injury, considering he is one of seven prominent players taking a seat for Washington's final Summer League contest. The No. 2 overall pick struggled on the offensive end in Vegas, but flashed the rim protection and defensive versatility that makes him such an intriguing prospect at seven feet tall.

Sarr's shooting woes continued Thursday, as he finished just 1-of-6 from the floor for six points over 28 minutes in an exhibition win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr has been ice-cold in Las Vegas, converting just 19.1 percent of his shot attempts through his first four games at Summer League. His first, and only, bucket didn't come until the closing minute of the first half, and he then proceeded to chuck up another three donuts after halftime. On the plus side, he added 11 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block while he was out there, so while his offense is certainly a work in progress, he has been able to show he can steadily provide the defensive stats.

Sarr recorded eight points (4-14 FG, 0-5 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 29 minutes during Sunday's Summer League game against the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
The offensive struggles continue for Sarr, who has shot just 30.7 percent from the floor across two Summer League appearances. Despite the offensive woes, the second overall pick provided value with solid interior defense once again Sunday, tying for a game-high two blocks.

Sarr tallied 12 points (4-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, four blocks and one steal across 32 minutes in Friday's 94-88 win over the Hawks in the NBA 2K25 Summer League.
EDGE Analysis
Sarr has been touted as an athletic big with the potential to block shots at an elite level, and he displayed this ability in the Summer League opener with a game-high four swats. The 19-year-old struggled from the field overall in the highly-anticipated matchup against No. 1 overall pick Zaccharie Risacher. However, Sarr stuffed the stat sheet and went an efficient 2-of-5 from deep. The No. 2 overall pick played for Perth in the NBL during the 2023-24 season, and he averaged 9.4 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks across 17.3 minutes while shooting 29.0 percent from deep.
