While Trae Young is ruled out with a right MCL contusion, Alex Sarr is listed as questionable due to his illness. Amidst Sarr finding out he's heading to All-Star weekend to participate in the Rising Stars competition, he went off for 29 points, 12 rebounds, six blocks, and two steals — stuffing the stat sheet with a little bit of everything. His production led the Wizards to a 115-111 win against the Blazers.
The Wizards' win over the Blazers snapped a nine-game losing streak, marking their first victory since January 6. Sarr, who's improved his game in his sophomore season, is averaging 17.7 points on 49.8% shooting, 7.5 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks per game.
He's also scored 20+ points in three of the Wizards last four games, including a season-high 29 points in Tuesday's win. Sarr also connected on a combined 6-for-18 3-point attempts throughout that span. While he is attempting less threes this season on 2.9 attempts compared to last year's 5.1 average, Sarr's 3-point shooting shooting clip has spiked to 34.3% from 30.8% shooting in 2024-25.
In a rare nationally televised Wizards game, is Alex Sarr playing tonight? Maybe.
