Mahinmi recorded 17 points (7-8 FG, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, three blocks, one assist, and one steal in 21 minutes during Friday's 125-119 win over the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi managed season highs in points and blocks while earning 20-plus minutes for the seventh time through 40 appearances in 2017-18. All seven of those outings have come in Mahinmi's last 21 tilts, so he is trending upward even though he remains an inconsistent fantasy option. Unless Marcin Gortat gets traded or injured, Mahinmi's role will likely continue to be limited.

Mahinmi (knee), according to coach Scott Brooks, has a "good chance" of playing Friday against the Clippers, Candace Buckner of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
This news makes it seem like Mahinmi, who has been sidelined over the past two games, should be considered probable rather than questionable. More word should emerge as Mahinmi goes through pre-game warmups. If he's held out again, Jason Smith should continue to get additional run.

Mahinmi (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers in the team's official game notes.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi is still battling knee soreness, and it's not clear exactly how severe the injury is. There should be another update on his status following the team's shootaround Friday morning, but whether he plays or not should not have much of an impact on the Wizards' rotation.

Mahinmi (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi has been ruled out after going through pregame warmups. In his stead, and with Markieff Morris (hip) being out, Mike Scott and Jason Smith should be in for extended run.

Mahinmi (knee) is a game-time decision for Wednesday's tilt against the Grizzlies, Chase Hughes of NBCS Washington reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi underwent an MRI, which came back clean. He missed Tuesday's game against the Nets after going through a typical pregame warmup to test the knee and determining he shouldn't take the floor. It appears he'll go through the same process Wednesday. In his stead, Jason Smith absorbed the majority of the reserve center role, playing 28 minutes, posting nine points and five rebounds.

Mahinmi (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Nets, Chris Miller of NBC Sports Washington reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi went through his typical pregame routine to test out the knee, but the Wizards will take a cautious approach and keep their big man sidelined, especially on the first night of a back-to-back. With Jason Smith (knee) also potentially out, starting center Marcin Gortat will see all the minutes he can handle, while Chris McCullough could re-enter the rotation off the bench.

Mahinmi (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's tilt against the Nets, Zach Rosen of the Wizards' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi was held out of practice Monday due to a sore knee, which may keep him out Tuesday. He'll likely continue to test out the knee as the team ramps up their activity throughout the day leading to tipoff. He's seen increased run as of late, averaging 20.4 minutes per game and posting 6.3 points and 4.6 rebounds over the past seven contests. If he's held out, starter Marcin Gortat would likely see increased run, especially if Jason Smith (knee) misses the tilt.

Mahinmi is considered day-to-day due to a sore knee, Candace Buckner of the Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi was held out of Monday's practice and should be considered questionable heading into Tuesday's matchup with the Nets in Brooklyn. The 31-year-old has seen increased minutes of late, playing 25 and 24 minutes, respectively, in the Wizards' last two games. He had 10 points and eight rebounds Thursday in Phoenix and followed up with 14 points and three assists Saturday against the Clippers.

Mahinmi (ankle) recorded two points (1-3 FG) and three rebounds across 13 minutes in Friday's loss to the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi was considered questionable for the contest after suffering an ankle injury in Wednesday's loss to the Lakers. However, the injury does not appear to be that serious, as the big man logged his usual minutes providing depth in the frontcourt.

Mahinmi (ankle) is considered a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Warriors, Candace Buckner of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mahinmi left Wednesday's loss to the Lakers with the sprained ankle and was unable to return. He'll likely test the ankle one last time in pregame warmups before a final decision is made, but if the big man is unable to play, look for Jason Smith to take on more frontcourt minutes off the bench Friday.
