Estatísticas de jogadores e prévia: Washington Wizards x Denver Nuggets (24 de mar. de 2027)

Strawther (knee) was diagnosed with a left knee sprain Friday and will be re-evaluated in six weeks, Vinny Benedetto of The Denver Gazette reports. Strawther suffered the injury in Wednesday's preseason game against the Clippers. The 24-year-old has appeared in 172 regular-season games for the Nuggets since entering the league in 2023, averaging 7.1 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.1 assists over 16.2 minutes per contest. He was in line to compete for an expanded role during the 2026-27 campaign. While that may be the case once Strawther is cleared to suit up, Tyus Jones and potentially Ryan Nembhard are candidates to receive more minutes in the interim.

Injury/Illness - Illness (2026-11-15, HOU@WAS).

Injury/Illness - Left ACL Repair / Surgery (2026-11-15, HOU@WAS). Prior reporting (2026-07-30): The Wizards announced Thursday that Watkins has undergone surgery for a torn ACL. Watkins, a two-way player for the Wizards, suffered the injury during the Summer League. Although Washington has yet to offer a timetable for a return, a typical recovery time for the procedure is approximately 9-to-12 months. That leaves Watkins in serious jeopardy of missing most, if not all, of the 2026-27 season, and it remains to be seen if the team will continue keeping him around on a two-way roster spot while he's injured.

Injury/Illness - Right Foot Surgery (2026-11-15, HOU@WAS). Prior reporting (2026-10-28): Champagnie (foot) is expected to miss several months, per Josh Robbins of The Athletic. The forward underwent surgery Wednesday to address a fractured foot, and the Wizards hope Champagnie will be ready to return at some time around the All-Star break in February. The likes of Bilal Coulibaly, Tre Johnson and Bub Carrington will all be asked to help pick up the slack for the foreseeable future.

Injury/Illness - Left Hip Impingement (2026-11-15, HOU@WAS). Prior reporting (2026-11-08): Vukcevic (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Detroit. Vukcevic has yet to make his season debut due to a left hip impingement. The big man can be viewed as week-to-week until the Wizards provide an update on his progress.

Injury/Illness - Low Back Soreness (2026-11-15, HOU@WAS). Prior reporting (2026-11-14): Johnson is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rockets due to lower-back soreness. Johnson has logged at least 27 minutes in each of Washington's last five games, but a back injury could prevent him from facing Houston on Sunday. If he and Bub Carrington (chest) are both ruled out, Will Riley could play meaningful minutes against the Rockets.

Injury/Illness - Right AC Joint Injury (2026-11-15, HOU@WAS). Prior reporting (2026-11-02): The Wizards announced Monday that Beekman sustained a right acromioclavicular joint injury and will be re-evaluated in approximately three weeks. Beekman is set for an extended absence, with his re-evaluation timeline suggesting he could remain sidelined beyond the initial three-week window. The injury further limits Washington's backcourt depth, though Beekman's absence is unlikely to have a significant impact on standard fantasy leagues.

G League - Two-Way (2026-11-15, HOU@WAS).

Injury/Illness - Chest / Sternum Contusion (2026-11-15, HOU@WAS).
