Efficient shooting in return
Bagley (back) accounted for 15 points (7-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block across 19 minutes in Sunday's 116-112 win over the Kings.
Analysis
Bagley made his first appearance since Jan. 19 after being sidelined due to an illness and a thoracic strain. Though he typically handles a reserve role, Bagley moved into the starting five in his return while top center Alex Sarr (calf) sat out. Though Bagley was a highly efficient scorer during his time on the court, he ended up sitting out the final 16 minutes of the game while the Wizards leaned more heavily on their second unit to finish out the contest. If Sarr remains out for Tuesday's game against the 31-18 Knicks, expect Bagley to start and take on a greater minutes load, since the 13-35 Wizards won't be as incentivized to bench starters like they did against another non-contending team in the 12-39 Kings.

Starting sans Sarr
Bagley will start Sunday's game against the Kings.
Analysis
With Alex Sarr (calf) unavailable, Bagley will get the starting nod for the first time since Dec. 14 in his return from a five-game absence due to a back injury and an illness. As a starter this season (seven games), the big man has averaged 13.9 points, 8.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 blocks in 28.0 minutes per tilt.

Another absence coming
Bagley is out for Thursday's game against the Bucks due to a thoracic strain.
Analysis
Bagley will be out for a fourth consecutive game, and a short turnaround looms Friday against the Lakers. With Tristan Vukcevic (hamstring) also sidelined, Anthony Gill should handle the No. 2 center job behind Alex Sarr (illness), but he wouldn't hold much fantasy utility in that role.
