Miles tallied 17 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two steals, one rebound and one assist in 20 minutes during Friday's 123-115 loss to the Capital City Go-Go.
EDGE Analysis
Miles was lights out from the field and led all bench scorers with 17 points in just 20 minutes of action. The 17-year veteran made an NBA appearance in late December for the first time since 2019, but he couldn't solidify a role with Boston during his 10-day contract due to a stint in COVID-19 protocols.

Coach Ime Udoka said Friday that Miles won't be back on a second 10-day contract, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miles made just one appearance -- playing two minutes and failing to record any counting stats -- during his stint with Boston. The veteran guard's return to the NBA was stymied with him landing in the league's health and safety protocols in the middle of his 10-day contract. The 34-year-old's next step is unclear, but there are plenty of open roster spots around the league as COVID-19 continues to decimate depth charts.

Miles cleared COVID-19 health and safety protocols Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Miles is not on the NBA's injury report anymore. But even if he becomes accessible, fantasy managers should not expect him to supply meaningful value. The Celtics still have primary shooting guards Jaylen Brown and Josh Richardson available despite the team's recent COVID-19 problems.

Miles will be available for Monday's contest against the 76ers, Mark Murphy of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miles, who recently made his NBA return by signing a G League contract, was quickly scooped up by the Celtics via hardship exemption after they lost a handful of players to the NBA's health and safety protocols. The 34-year-old veteran will be available for Boston, but given it's his first NBA action since 2019, he's unlikely to play a large role.

Miles signed a contract with the Celtics via hardship exemption Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miles signed with the NBA G League Ignite on Friday, but he'll now join the shorthanded Celtics ahead of Monday's game against the 76ers. While it's not yet clear whether the 34-year-old will be available against Philadelphia, he could see some playing time while Boston deals with several absences.

Miles signed with the NBA G League Ignite on Friday, Rylan Stiles of BricktownBuckets.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miles, who is a 17-year NBA veteran, will join the Ignite as a mentor for the youthful Ignite squad. The 34-year-old last played in the NBA in 2019 before a wrist injury kept him sidelined for the rest of the season. Miles' exact role for the team remains unclear, but it's likely he operates in a similar manner to what Udonis Haslem does for the Heat.

The Wizards waived Miles (wrist) on Sunday, Candace Buckner of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miles had already been ruled out for the season after undergoing left wrist surgery in early December, but the rebuilding Wizards had viewed the 32-year-old as a valuable veteran presence on a young roster. Even so, Washington couldn't afford to keep Miles on the roster due to the club's mounting health concerns, as six other players remain sidelined due to injuries. According to Bobby Marks of ESPN.com, Washington will still retain its $4.4 million Disabled Player Exception that had been awarded after Miles was ruled out for the season. The Wizards will convert Anzejs Pasecniks' two-way deal into a standard contract, allowing him to take Miles' spot on the 15-man roster.

Miles (wrist) will likely be held out for the remainder of the season as the Wizards applied for a disabled player exception for him Monday, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The exception is allowed when a player has been ruled out for the entirety of the current or upcoming season and allows the team to exceed the salary cap to acquire a replacement. For Miles, this indicates that the Wizards believe his recovery process from wrist surgery will take long enough that it's worthwhile to simply rule him out for the remainder of the year and acquire a replacement than to wait for him to return to full health. Based on this, even if the Wizards application is denied, there's a good chance that Miles could be held out for the majority of the year anyway.

Miles underwent successful surgery Wednesday to repair ligament damage to his left wrist.
EDGE Analysis
The Wizards haven't provided a timeline for Miles' recovery, but the swingman looks like he could be at risk of missing a good portion of what remains of the 2019-20 campaign. Miles' absence for the foreseeable future will free up more playing time on the wing for Jordan McRae, Isaac Bonga and Troy Brown.
