Wall scored 23 points (7-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 10 assists, six rebounds and two steals in 40 minutes on Saturday in a loss against the Hornets.
EDGE Analysis
Wall has been on a major heater lately and with how the Wizards run at such a high pace, that makes him one of the best point guards in fantasy basketball at the moment. The former number-one overall pick has also been locked in from 3-point range, as he's been 8-for-12 from beyond the arc in the last three games. The next matchup for Wall and the Wizards is on Tuesday against the Knicks at Madison Square Garden.

Wall recorded 18 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 13 rebounds, 10 assists, two steals, and one block in 33 minutes during the Wizards' 106-94 win over the 76ers on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Two nights after he went for 41 points and 10 helpers, Wall mustered up his first triple-double of the season and the fourth of his career--albeit against the 76ers. The East's 10th-seeded Wizards are 22-26, and Saturday's matchup with the ninth-seeded Hornets is extremely important heading into the All-Star break. As a result, look for Wall to try and take over once again in what feels like a must-win affair.

Wall went for 41 points (17-25 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 10 assists, three rebounds, and two steals in 35 minutes during the Wizards' 134-121 loss to the Warriors on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Wall was overshadowed by the Warriors' Stephen Curry, who scored 51 points and sank 11 three-pointers. Still, Wall had a much more efficient game as passer, dishing 10 assists to three turnovers while the reigning MVP had two assists and seven turnovers. The Wizards' point guard has been one of the top fantasy players this season, and he figures to continue putting up wild numbers on a 21-26 team that needs to start stringing some wins together.

Wall scored 19 points (7-22 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT) while adding 13 assists, eight rebounds, two blocks and a steal in 36 minutes during Saturday's win over the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
As per usual for Wall it wasn't the most efficient performance, but he's now racked up double-digit assists in six of his last seven games, averaging 17.9 points, 11.3 assists, 4.9 boards, 2.3 steals, 1.0 threes and 1.0 blocks over that stretch. The 35.8 percent shooting from the floor during those seven games is fairly ugly, but Wall should begin to find more space for his own shot once Bradley Beal and Otto Porter find their rhythm again.

Wall scored 17 points (5-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT) to go along with nine assists, seven rebounds, four steals and two blocks in a loss to the Nuggets on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Wall was playing at a hundred miles per hour once again, and while it made for entertaining TV, it didn't get the win for the Wizards. It was a great night in terms of fantasy statistics, and will continue to do so with Washington playing at one of the NBA's fastest tempos. Wall will likely get more assists once Brad Beal and Otto Porter are on the court for more minutes, but everything is stil all systems go every time he takes the court.

Wall struggled again with 18 points (6-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT) and 14 assists over 36 minutes in Tuesday's 106-89 loss to the Raptors.
EDGE Analysis
The Wizards have dropped four of five games and Wall is shooting 38.1 percent from the field during that stretch. He's reverted back to being a mediocre 3-point shooter and the only real stat category he can be relied on to produce is assists. Wall likely isn't worth his price tag in daily formats with how he's been playing lately.

Wall turned in just eight points (3-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT) with 10 assists and two blocks over 33 minutes in Monday's 116-91 loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
The Celtics did a nice job containing Wall, forcing him to take outside shots and preventing him from getting anything going from the foul line. He still managed to post double-digit assists for the fourth straight game, though Wall's scoring has plummeted since a binge three games ago. It's hard to trust Wall right now, especially in daily formats where his price tag is so high, but expect him to bounce back a bit against the Raptors on Tuesday.

Wall contributed 18 points (7-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT) while dishing out 10 assists over 32 minutes in Wednesday's 106-87 win against the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Wall's struggles from distance don't seem to want to go away, though that hasn't really been a factor in his fantasy lines. It was a bit surprising Wall didn't take full advantage of Miami's depleted back court, but the Wizards really spread the wealth around with their roster looking more and more healthy. Wall has notched double-digit assists in three straight games.

Wall scored just nine points (4-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt) to go along with four rebounds, 10 assists and three steals in 36 minutes during Monday's loss to the Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
The All-Star guard fell well short of the 36 points he dropped on Saturday, largely due to his inability to get to the free throw line a single time. In typical fashion, Wall made strong contributions in other categories, helping soften the blow of this putrid shooting performance. Expect him to make a concerted effort to get to the basket next time around, as he attempts to bounce back from Monday's game.

Wall scored a game-high 36 points (12-25 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 11-13 FT) while adding 13 assists, seven rebounds, seven steals and a block in 44 minutes during Saturday's loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
He very nearly got Washington the victory single-handedly, but despite his massive stat line Wall missed a potential tying bucket at the buzzer. He still recorded his fifth double-double in nine January games, though, and 22nd of the season.
