Sarr will miss a sixth straight game with a sprained left ankle. Richaun Holmes should remain in the starting lineup, racing his fantasy ceiling in the short term. Tristan Vukcevic will play rotation minutes off the bench, but he isn't worth adding in most fantasy leagues.
The Wizards initially reported Sarr as active for Wednesday's game, but they scratched him shortly before tipoff. Richaun Holmes will start at center against the Nets, and Tristan Vukcevic should play rotation minutes off the bench.
Washington trading Kyle Kuzma (Milwaukee) and Jonas Valanciunas (Sacramento) opened up two spots in the starting lineup earlier Wednesday. Carrington and Holmes have been promoted, with the latter starting while Alexandre Sarr works his way back from a sprained ankle. In the past, Holmes has put together quality performances when allowed to start, making him worth a roll of the dice for Wednesday. Carrington will have added value as the season winds down with the Wizards focused on rebuilding.
Initially ruled out for Wednesday's game, Sarr is now available and will return to the starting lineup. With Washington trading Jonas Valanciunas on Wednesday, Richaun Holmes should continue to serve as the backup center. While the veteran may have added value in the short term, he isn't worth the risk in most leagues.
While the Kings have their starting center in Domantas Sabonis, there was a need to strengthen the rotation behind him. They've acquired Valanciunas and sent the recently acquired Cissoko and two second-round picks to Washington. While JV had standard league value as Alexandre Sarr's backup with the Wizards, that's unlikely to happen in Sacramento.
