Struggles in loss
Riley posted four points (1-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers.
Analisi
Riley scored in single digits for the second straight game, seemingly having lost his shooting touch. Despite the poor production, it does appear as though he could be locked into a relatively consistent role moving forward, something that certainly can't be said for a number of his teammates. Assuming you can deal with some inefficient shooting, Riley remains someone worth rostering given the fact that he should see close to 30 minutes per game.

Reverting to bench Sunday
Riley is not in the Wizards' starting lineup against the Heat on Sunday.
Analisi
The rookie first-rounder is coming off a career performance Saturday against the Nets, when he tallied 27 points, three rebounds, two assists, three steals, one block and four three-pointers over 45 minutes. Riley has seen more playing time as of late and has averaged 19.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.0 steals over his last five outings, but he will come off the bench Sunday due to the returns of Bilal Coulibaly and Kyshawn George.

Scores career-high 27 points
Riley generated 27 points (10-19 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists, three steals and one block across 45 minutes of Saturday's 127-113 loss to Brooklyn.
Analisi
The Wizards had just eight players available Saturday, allowing for Riley to make his second career start. He played 15 more minutes than his previous career high, and his 27 points were also a new best. Riley has etched out a steady role with the Wizards as a rookie, and he's now scored in double figures in five consecutive games. In 43 regular-season appearances thus far, Riley is averaging 7.0 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 16.2 minutes.

Starting vs. Brooklyn
Riley will start against the Nets on Saturday.
Analisi
The Wizards have only eight players available for the front end of this back-to-back set, so Riley will join the starting five for the second time this season and should see significant minutes. The rookie first-rounder has scored in double figures in four straight games, averaging 17.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.8 steals across 27.3 minutes per game during that span.
