Wizards looking to avoid 12th-straight loss
The Washington Wizards face the Golden State Warriors tonight at 7 p.m. You can watch the game on Monumental Sports Network.
Injuries:
Isaiah Livers (Right hip) – OFS
Bilal Coulibaly (Right pelvis contusion) – OUT
Deni Avdija (Heel contusion) – OUT
Corey Kispert (Non-covid illness) – AVAILABLE
Landry Shamet (Neck strain) – AVAILABLE
What to Watch For:
Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors come to town to face an old-friend in Jordan Poole. Poole and Green made headlines last year for an altercation in which Green punched Poole in the face. The fallout lead to some team chemistry issues, a big reason why Poole was moved in the offseason. Look for those two to bring their A games in their first matchup since the trade (Green was suspended for the first game between the teams this season).
Additionally, Washington has lost 11-straight games and are down a couple pieces due to injury. Look for some of the lesser-known guys like Jared Butler Jr. and Patrick Baldwin Jr. to step up tonight.
