George's absence means Justin Champagnie could draw another start alongside Bub Carrington, Jordan Poole, Bilal Coulibaly and Richaun Holmes. Holmes has been filling in for the injured Sarr with Jonas Valanciunas and Marvin Bagley III traded.
With Kyshawn George (ankle) sidelined, Champagnie will slide into the starting lineup. Champagnie had a strong run as a starter in December, though his production was hit-or-miss. He isn't a great streaming option on a night with 11 games.
Champagnie has been a consistent part of Washington's rotation lately, but he hasn't played a large enough role to be worth rostering in fantasy basketball. His minutes will likely be divided up between Kyshawn George, Bilal Coulibaly and Corey Kispert, which should give all of them a slight boost.
Week 16 in Yahoo leagues will cover both sides of the All-Star break, so be smart with those transactions.
Coulibaly recorded his first triple-double on Wednesday and was also responsible for three defensive contributions. However, the second-year wing was also accountable for a season-high six turnovers. Fantasy managers should focus on the positives regarding the Wizards' younger players, as they will have nights like this. And don't look now, but Washington has one its last three games. Coulibaly should play plenty down the stretch as the Wizards continue to evaluate their draft picks and attempt to improve their draft lottery odds.
