Bonga had just seven points, three assists and two rebounds in 15 minutes during Friday's 112-103 loss to Miami.

EDGE Analysis

Bonga played just 15 minutes as a member of the starting lineup, finishing with seven points and very little else. He is basically running with the starting unit in an attempt to get Troy Brown more confident moving forward. Despite the seemingly permanent move, Bonga is not worth looking at in most formats.

Bonga is expected to remain in the starting lineup for the foreseeable future, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bonga made his return to the starting five Tuesday night against the Magic and finished with two points, six rebounds and a steal in 17 minutes. In terms of fantasy upside, Bonga doesn't offer much, but it looks as though he'll be favored over second-year wing Troy Brown -- at least for the next few weeks while the Wizards deal with injuries up front, primarily to Thomas Bryant.

Bonga is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

The 20-year-old will receive his first start since Nov. 6 with Moritz Wagner (ankle), Thomas Bryant (foot) and Ian Mahinmi (Achilles) all sidelined. Bonga is averaging 4.1 points and 2.6 rebounds in 15.6 minutes this season, but he figures to see an expanded role Wednesday given Washington's lack of available frontcourt depth.

Bonga had two points (1-1 FG), one rebound and one assist in six minutes during Tuesday's 117-104 loss to the Nuggets.

EDGE Analysis

Bonga has barely seen the floor since losing the starting small forward gig earlier this month. He hasn't reached double figures in scoring once through 10 appearances this season, and he has combined to play just 10 minutes across his last three tilts.

Bonga will not start Friday's game against the Cavaliers, Chase Hughes of NBC Sports Washington reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Scott Brooks won't divulge who is getting the nod in Bonga's stead, though it's likely either Troy Brown or C.J. Miles. Bonga has started every game so far this season, averaging 4.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.0 steal in 21.4 minutes.

Bonga is starting Monday's game against the Pistons, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bonga is set to make his sixth start of the season. He's averaging 5.6 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists over the first five matchups. Troy Brown is expected to replace Bonga in the starting five at some point, but the former second-round pick will maintain his starting role for the time being.

Bonga had six points (3-4 FG), three rebounds and two assists in Wednesday's loss to Houston.

EDGE Analysis

The Wizards put up 158 points in regulation, but that didn't translate to a remarkable night for Bonga, who took only four shots and committed five fouls in 25 minutes of action. Bonga has started all four games thus far, but he could cede his starting spot to Troy Brown -- who made his debut Wednesday -- in the near future.

Bonga finished with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists, and one block in 17 minutes during Friday's 112-93 win over the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Bonga didn't contribute much in terms of scoring but did make his mark in the rebounding and assist departments. It appears the ankle injury he suffered in Sunday's matchup didn't linger long, and with several days to rest and recover in advance of the regular season opener (next Wednesday), Bonga should be good to go.

Bonga (ankle) is no longer listed on the team's injury report for Friday's game against the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Bonga has been nursing a left ankle sprain, but after practicing in full Wednesday, the team has removed him from the injury report. He'll have one more exhibition to make a claim for minutes during the regular season.

Bonga (ankle) practiced fully Wednesday, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bonga left Sunday's preseason contest against the Bucks early due to a left ankle sprain but appears to be recovering quite well. The guard will likely be a game-time call for the final exhibition matchup against Philadelphia on Friday.
