Smart won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Kings due to a right index finger partial extensor hood tear.
EDGE Analysis
Smart continues to deal with a right index finger injury and will be forced to sit out the first leg of Washington's back-to-back Wednesday. AJ Johnson, Anthony Gill and Jaylen Martin are candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. Smart's next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with Orlando.

Smart (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Smart is in jeopardy of missing his third consecutive contest due to a non-COVID illness. If the veteran guard remains on the shelf, AJ Johnson and Colby Jones are candidates for an uptick in playing time.

Smart (finger) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
Smart will not be available for the Wizards on Wednesday, as he's dealing with a finger issue on his right hand. Bub Carrington will likely get more time on the floor with the veteran guard on the mend.

Smart (finger) submitted 17 points (6-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block across 24 minutes in Saturday's 122-103 loss to the Knicks.
EDGE Analysis
After resting in Friday's 120-105 loss to the Magic, Smart essentially filled in Saturday for Khris Middleton (ankles), who was given a maintenance day in the second leg of the Wizards' back-to-back set. Poor free-throw shooting aside, Smart came through with perhaps his best all-around showing of his 12 appearances with the Wizards, with his points, three-pointers, rebounds, steals and blocks totals either matching or surpassing his previous bests from the prior 11 contests. Despite Smart's excellent outing Saturday, extracting fantasy value from him over the final three weeks of the season could prove exceedingly difficult. In addition to likely seeing a slight dip in minutes when Middleton is available, Smart's playing time will presumably remain highly volatile as the Wizards prioritize younger options down the stretch in the midst of a non-contending season.
