Wright finished with four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) over five minutes during Monday's 146-128 loss to the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
Wright entered Monday's contest averaging 19.0 minutes per game, but he was phased out of the rotation against Philadelphia. Wright has credibility as a streamer for steals, but it will likely take an injury to Washington's backcourt or a trade to put him in a role with worthwhile minutes.

Wright ended with eight points (3-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, six assists and three steals across 25 minutes during Wednesday's 143-120 loss to the Pacers.
EDGE Analysis
While Tyus Jones will be the Wizards' starting point guard, Wright is a name to monitor in deeper leagues due to his penchant for high-volume steals. Last season, Wright averaged 1.8 steals per game and led the NBA in steal percentage among players who appeared in at least 50 games.

Wright (illness) isn't listed on the injury report for Friday's game versus the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Wright skipped the last pair of games due to illness, but he looks set to rejoin the action with two games remaining in the season. He will presumably receive the starting nod at point guard and additional minutes with Monte Morris (ankle) still out.

Wright (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Wright will be unavailable for a second consecutive game due to a non-COVID illness. Monte Morris (ankle) will also remain out, so Jordan Goodwin and Kendrick Nunn should continue to see increased roles.

Wright (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Wright was a late addition to the Wizards' injury report Tuesday afternoon with a non-COVID illness. With Monte Morris also out, Jordan Goodwin and Kendrick Nunn should see more action at the point guard spot. It's unclear whether or not Wright will feel up to playing in Wednesday's game in Atlanta.

Wright is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Bucks due to a non-COVID illness.
EDGE Analysis
Wright was a late addition to the injury report, which is never a good sign. If he joins Monte Morris (ankle), Bradley Beal (knee), Kyle Kuzma (ankle), Deni Avdija (elbow) and Kristaps Porzingis (illness) on the bench, Johnny Davis, Corey Kispert and Jordan Goodwin would presumably be Washington's go-to playmakers versus Milwaukee.

Wright finished with 21 points (8-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Friday's 116-109 loss to the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Wright's scoring comes and goes, but fantasy managers can usually count on him for his production in assists and steals when the minutes are there. Bradley Beal continues to miss time with left knee soreness, and Wright and Corey Kispert certainly look capable of holding down the fort for Washington as they combined for 48 points Friday night.

EDGE Analysis
Wright will get another spot start with Monte Morris (groin) sidelined. Across nine starts this season, Wright has averaged 8.3 points, 5.8 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 2.6 steals in 31.2 minutes per game.
