The 26-year-old also finished as one of seven Washington players to score in double figures and tied the team lead in rebounds. Bagley should remain in the first unit for as long as Sarr is sidelined and is a viable streaming option.

Bagley drew the start Monday with Alex Sarr (adductor) sidelined, and he certainly didn't disappoint. In two starts this season, Bagley has averaged 17.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 steals in 30.0 minutes. As for Tuesday's game against the 76ers, Sarr's status is currently in the air.

Bagley is starting in Monday's game against the Bucks.

The 2018 first-round pick has held a steady bench role in the frontcourt, averaging 7.6 points and 4.4 rebounds in 15.8 minutes across 14 appearances (one start) this season. If he remains out, Tristan Vukcevic would be positioned for increased run at center.

Bagley (hip) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Bulls.

Bagley will be sidelined for a second consecutive game due to a hip injury. The Wizards are at least getting Alex Sarr (toe) back for Saturday's game, and Bagley's absence means Tristan Vukcevic should still see meaningful minutes off the bench despite reverting to a bench role. Bagley's next opportunity to play is Tuesday against the Hawks.

Bagley (hip) is out for Friday's game against the Raptors.

Bagley was initially listed as doubtful for this NBA Cup matchup against the Raptors, the first leg of a back-to-back set, so the downgrade to out isn't surprising. It remains to be seen if the forward, who will miss a game for the first time in 2025-26 on Friday, will be able to make a quick return Saturday against the Bulls.

Bagley is doubtful for Friday's game against the Raptors with a right hip contusion.

Bagley produced 13 points (6-11 FG, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 120-109 loss to the Timberwolves, but he walked away from the game with a hip injury.

Bagley closed with 13 points (6-11 FG, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and three steals over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 120-109 loss to the Timberwolves.

Bagley did some damage on both ends of the floor, putting together his best performance of the season. With Alex Sarr (toe) sidelined, it was Bagley who was elevated into the starting center role. While he has been a regular part of the rotation thus far, this was easily his most sizeable role. If Sarr is forced to miss additional time, Bagley could be a potential stream target, even in standard formats.

Bagley (undisclosed) has returned to Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.

Bagley went back to the locker room during the third quarter for undisclosed reasons, but he checked back into the contest early in the fourth period. He's serving as one of the Wizards' top big men Wednesday due to the absence of Alex Sarr (toe).

Bagley closed with nine points (4-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, three blocks and three steals over 16 minutes during Monday's 137-135 overtime loss to the Pistons.

Bagley went to work on the defensive end of the floor, recording six combined steals and blocks. Given he had a combined seven steals in blocks across the previous 10 games, we can safely assume that this was nothing more than an outlier. Barring an injury to Alex Sarr, Bagley can safely be left on the waiver wire.

Bagley (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Thunder.

Bagley will play through a sprained ankle Thursday. With Alex Sarr healthy, however, Bagley's fantasy value is limited while in a backup role at center.

Bagley is questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder due to a sprained right ankle.

Bagley is in jeopardy of missing his first game of the season. The veteran big man's potential absence would open the door for Tristan Vukcevic to have the backup center role all to himself behind starter Alex Sarr.

Bagley notched 14 points (6-7 FG, 2-4 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 19 minutes during Tuesday's 139-134 overtime loss to the 76ers.

With Alex Sarr (rest) sidelined, Bagley got the starting nod in Monday's contest. The big man led the Wizards in scoring and also grabbed a game-high 11 rebounds.

Bagley has agreed to a one-year contract with the Wizards, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Bagley has bounced around the league quite a bit since being drafted out of Duke with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. The 26-year-old has had stints with the Kings, Pistons, Grizzlies and Wizards. He will now return to Washington for a second time. He played in 31 games during the 2024-25 campaign, but rarely saw the floor, averaging 8.5 minutes per game.

Bagley made the most of the opportunity to feature Sunday and posted an excellent stat line. However, he's quite down in the pecking order in the rotation, so he's not likely to see a big role in the frontcourt once the playoffs begin. At least, he'll be a depth option for any of the two frontcourt roles behind either Jaren Jackson or Zach Edey.

Bagley is in the Grizzlies' starting lineup against the Mavericks on Sunday, Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com reports.

Bagley has seen inconsistent playing time with the Grizzlies, but he'll make his first start for Memphis due to the absences of Zach Edey (ankle), Jaren Jackson (back) and Santi Aldama (ankle). Bagley is averaging 1.6 points and 1.5 rebounds across 6.2 minutes per game for the Grizzlies this season, though he should get an extended run in Sunday's regular-season finale.

Bagley (concussion) is available for Saturday's game against the Lakers, Michael C. Wright of ESPN.com reports.

Bagley has been sidelined for the Grizzlies' last two games, but he has cleared the league's concussion protocol and will be available off the bench for Saturday's contest. He's seen sparse playing time this season but offers depth at center behind Jaren Jackson and Zach Edey.

Bagley (concussion) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

Bagley has been sidelined for the Grizzlies' last two games due to a concussion, but his questionable tag indicates that he is progressing through the league's concussion protocol. He hasn't seen much playing time when healthy, so his return wouldn't impact the Grizzlies' frontcourt rotation all that much.

Bagley (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Thunder.

Bagley will miss a second straight game for the Grizzlies as he works his way back from a concussion. The next opportunity for him to get back on the floor for Memphis will be Saturday against the Lakers.

Bagley is out for Tuesday's game against Utah due to a concussion.

Bagley will need to sit out at least one game while in the concussion protocol, and he can be labeled day-to-day ahead of Thursday's matchup with Oklahoma City. The veteran big man has played a mere 7.0 minutes per game over seven appearances since joining Memphis, so his absence is unlikely to free up a noticeable number of minutes.

Bagley (ankle) recorded no statistics while playing the final 1:31 of Thursday's 127-111 loss to the Pacers.

Bagley made his Grizzlies debut in garbage time, playing for the first time since Dec. 23 after he had been sidelined due to a right ankle distal syndesmosis sprain before the Wizards shipped him to Memphis ahead of the Feb. 6 trade deadline. So long as the Grizzlies have at least two or three of Jaren Jackson, Zach Edey, Brandon Clarke and Jay Huff available in the frontcourt, Bagley likely won't be in the mix for a rotation spot.

Bagley has been cleared to play Thursday against the Pacers, Jonah Dylan of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Bagley has missed the last 26 games with an ankle injury and was traded to the Grizzlies by the Wizards during that time. The 25-year-old big man is on track to make his debut Thursday for Memphis when they face the Pacers on the road.

Bagley is currently sidelined by a right knee sprain and has missed 21 straight games. He hasn't been given an official timetable, but the Grizzlies should provide some clarity once he joins his new team. Once healthy, there's no guarantee that Bagley is able to crack the rotation in Memphis.

Bagley (knee) is out for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves.

Bagley hasn't played since Dec. 26 and is set to miss a 21st straight contest. Given that the Wizards haven't provided an indication regarding Bagley's potential return to on-cour, full-contact work, it's safe to consider the 25-year-old as week-to-week going forward.

Bagley (knee) is out for Friday's game versus the Suns due to a right knee sprain.

Bagley's absence streak will extend to 17 games Saturday due to a sprained right knee. Until Washington provides a timetable for the 25-year-old big man's return, he can be considered week-to-week.

Bagley hasn't played since Dec. 23 against the Thunder due to what looked to be a significant right knee sprain. The Wizards haven't offered many details on where Bagley stands in his recovery from the injury, with head coach Brian Keefe having merely said that the big man isn't out for the season.

Saturday will mark 13 straight absences for Bagley, who carries no definitive timetable for a return from a sprained right knee. The veteran big man's next chance to retake the floor for the Wizards comes Sunday against the Kings. In Bagley's absence against Golden State, Alexandre Sarr and Jonas Valanciunas should continue to play the lion's share of the center minutes in Washington's rotation.

Bagley (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup with Phoenix.

Bagley will now miss 12 straight games due to his knee injury, and it is unknown when he would make his potential return this season. In the 19 games Bagley did play in, he averaged 4.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, 0.4 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.3 blocks over 8.9 minutes.

The big man was carried back to the locker room with 6:48 remaining after getting his leg caught underneath him. In the likely event that the Bagley is unable to return, he'll finish with seven points (2-3 FG, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 16 minutes.

Bagley contributed 20 points (9-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and three blocks in 25 minutes during Sunday's 140-112 loss to Memphis.

Although Bagley is back on the bench, his recent results have earned him more action in the rotation. His prospects sunk when the team signed Jonas Valanciunas and drafted Alex Sarr in the offseason, and it's easy to forget the splash Bagley made with the Kings in his rookie season. injuries have been an issue for most of his career, but he's shown flashes of his former self as a healthy backup for the Wizards. He is in a tough spot on the depth chart behind Sarr, but Washington may eventually make major changes that could give Bagley more fantasy value.

Bagley is not in the Wizards' starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Nuggets.

Bagley made his first start of the 2024-25 regular season Thursday against the Mavericks and finished with 16 points, eight rebounds and two steals over 24 minutes.

It remains to be seen if head coach Brian Keefe will keep Bagley in the starting lineup once Kyle Kuzma (ribs) returns to the fold, but fantasy managers should keep an eye on Bagley on waiver wires until the dust settles regarding the 25-year-old former lottery pick's role going forward.

Bagley is starting Thursday's game against the Mavericks.

Bagley will make his first start of the season Thursday, as the Wizards will shake things up in the frontcourt once again. Bagley is averaging just 5.4 minutes per game this season, but he should see a sizable uptick in playing time in this one.

Bagley (groin) is listed as available for Friday's game versus the Celtics.

Bagley will play through right groin soreness, though he has yet to see the floor for more than 10 minutes in a game this season The 25-year-old has averaged 3.2 points and 2.2 rebounds across only 5.9 minutes per game in nine regular-season appearances.

Bagley (groin) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Celtics.

Bagley is dealing with right groin soreness, though his absence shouldn't affect fantasy decisions as he has played an insignificant role in the club's rotation. The 25-year-old has averaged 3.2 points and 2.2 rebounds across only 5.9 minutes per game in nine regular-season appearances.

Bagley (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

Bagley is set to return following a one-game absence due to a non-COVID illness. His return should affect many fantasy decisions, though, as the big man has averaged a mere 6.8 minutes per game off the bench in his previous five contests.

Bagley (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

Bagley has been dealing with a non-COVID illness that caused him to miss the Monday matchup against the Warriors.

Bagley (illness) will not play Monday against the Warriors.

Bagley was unable to shake his questionable tag for this contest and remains day-to-day. Bagley hasn't been a consistent part of the rotation, however, so this news doesn't carry many fantasy implications.

Bagley is questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors due to a non-COVID illness.

After playing 10 minutes in each of the first two games of the season, Bagley has played six or fewer minutes in three straight matchups. His potential absence would likely mean a few extra minutes for Richaun Holmes.

Bagley closed Saturday's 135-116 loss to the Cavaliers with nine points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds and one block across 10 minutes.

Bagley has played exactly 10 minutes off the bench in back-to-back games to start the season. He's totaled 17 points, 12 rebounds, an assist and a block. That's solid per-minute production, but Bagley finds himself firmly behind Alex Sarr and Jonas Valanciunas on the depth chart.

Bagley isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason finale against the Knicks.

Jonas Valanciunas will replace Bagley in the starting five Friday after sitting out Washington's previous contest for rest purposes. Bagley is expected to compete for a depth role in the Wizards' frontcourt this season.

Alex Sarr will sit with calf soreness, giving Bagley the opportunity to enter the starting lineup. The 25-year-old is expected to compete for playing time off the bench with Richaun Holmes behind Jonas Valanciunas, but Bagley has yet to appear in more than 50 regular-season outings since his rookie season in 2018-19 (62 games).

Bagley (knee) was a full participant during Tuesday's practice, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Bagley missed six straight games to end the 2023-24 regular season, but that was likely precautionary. He's back to full strength ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. However, after the offseason acquisition of Jonas Valanciunas, Bagley will be competing for backup frontcourt minutes with Alex Sarr, Richaun Holmes and Tristan Vukcevic.

Bagley (knee) will not play Sunday against the Celtics.

Bagley remains week-to-week for the Wizards and was unable to return for the finale. In 24 appearances for the Wizards, Bagley produced averages of 13.3 points, 8.1 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.8 blocks.

Bagley (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls.

Bagley sustained a knee injury last week and is deemed week-to-week, and he'll be sidelined for the Wizards' penultimate game of the regular season. It seems unlikely that the 25-year-old will be back in action for Sunday's regular-season finale against Boston.

Interim coach Brian Keefe said Wednesday that Bagley (knee) is being treated as week-to-week, Bijan Todd of Monumental Sports Network reports.

Bagley has already been ruled out for Wednesday's contest due to a right knee sprain but is now set to miss an extended period. Tristan Vukcevic and Eugene Omoruyi are candidates to receive increased playing time in his absence. With the Wizards already eliminated from playoff contention, it wouldn't be surprising to see Bagley shut down for the remainder of the season.

Bagley (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Lakers.

Bagley didn't return Tuesday after leaving the win over the Bucks in the second quarter due to a right knee sprain. He'll miss the second half of Washington's back-to-back set and turn his sights on suiting up for Friday's matchup against Portland. Richaun Holmes (toe) is questionable, so if both big men are out, Tristan Vukcevic and Eugene Omoruyi would be candidates for increased roles.

Bagley (knee) finished Tuesday's 117-113 win over the Bucks with four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal in nine minutes.

After exiting Tuesday's contest with 7:59 remaining in the second quarter due to a knee injury, Bagley was unable to re-enter the game. Trian Vukcevic saw increased playing time in his absence. Bagley's next chance to suit up is Wednesday's matchup with the Lakers.

Bagley was helped to the locker room after suffering a knee injury on an awkward fall during Tuesday's game against Milwaukee, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

The Wizards have not offered a diagnosis yet, but the fact that Bagley was helped off the court while holding the outside of his right knee is not a good sign for his potential return. If he can't return, then Eugene Omoruyi and Tristan Vukcevic would be in line for more prominent roles the rest of the game.

Bagley totaled 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and two steals over 26 minutes during Sunday's 119-107 loss to the Heat.

Bagley has started in the Wizards' last two games due to the absence of Kyle Kuzma (), but he's responded well with back-to-back double-doubles. There are no signs of the Wizards wanting to shut Kuzma down for the rest of the season, as the team has nothing to play for, but if that's the case, then Bagley would suddenly become more valuable down the stretch. He's averaging 13.6 points and 7.8 rebounds per game in a starting role while also riding a streak of five consecutive outings with double-digit points.

Bagley registered 15 points (7-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt), 11 rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 27 minutes during Friday's 96-87 loss to the Pistons.

Bagley got the start Friday due to Richaun Holmes (toe) sidelined. Bagley took advantage of the opportunity as he notched his eighth double-double of the season and his first since March 1 against the Clippers. Bagley's playing time for Sunday's game against the Heat will depend on whether Holmes will have recovered enough from his left toe contusion or not.

Bagley will start Friday's game against the Pistons.

With Richaun Holmes (toe) sidelined, Bagley will move into the starting lineup again. From Feb. 10 to March 4, Bagley drew 10 straight starts for the Wizards and averaged 11.9 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 blocks in 26.2 minutes.

Bagley finished with 16 points (7-8 FG, 2-2 FT) and two rebounds over 17 minutes off the bench during Monday's 107-105 win over the Bulls.

Playing his second game since returning from a back issue, Bagley remained behind Richaun Holmes on the depth chart at center for the Wizards but had a very efficient offensive performance. Holmes has been a beast on the glass the last few games, so while the 25-year-old Bagley is more likely to be part of the team's future plans, they may be in no rush to push him back into the starting five to close out the 2023-24 season.

Bagley notched 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds and two blocks over 17 minutes in Saturday's 112-109 win over Toronto.

Bagley (back) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's game versus the Raptors.

Bagley will return to action Saturday after missing Washington's last nine contests due to a lumbar sprain. While Bagley will likely replace Richaun Holmes in the starting lineup, it wouldn't be surprising for him to operate on a minutes restriction.

Bagley (back) won't play in Thursday's game versus the Kings.

Bagley's absence streak will extend to nine games Thursday due to a lumbar sprain. While there is no set timetable for his return, Bagley's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Toronto.

Bagley (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Rockets.

Bagley will miss an eighth straight game due to a lumbar sprain. Richaun Holmes should draw another start while Kyle Kuzma and Anthony Gill operate as backups at center, given Eugene Omoruyi (ankle) is also out.

Bagley (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Celtics.

Bagley will miss a seventh straight game, so Richaun Holmes should draw another start at center. Bagley's next chance to suit up comes Tuesday versus Houston.

Bagley (back) won't play in Saturday's game versus the Bulls.

Bagley's absence streak will extend to six games Saturday duet to back spasms. With Richaun Holmes (toe) questionable, Kyle Kuzma could start at center for Washington yet again. Bagley's next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Boston.

The Wizards announced Friday that Bagley (back) will be re-evaluated in one week, Chase Hughes of Monumental Sports Network reports.

Bagley has already been ruled out for Friday's contest due to a lower back strain, marking his second straight absence. The Wizards have opted to go small with Bagley out, inserting Corey Kispert into the starting lineup and utilizing Kyle Kuzma at center.

Bagley (back) will not play Friday against the Hornets.

It'll be the second straight game on the sidelines for Bagley, and it'll be Kyle Kuzma, Richaun Holmes and Deni Avdija picking up the slack in his absence. For now, Bagley should be considered questionable for Sunday's game in Miami.

Bagley (back) will not play Wednesday versus Orlando.

Bagley will miss his first contest since being activated by the Wizards after the trade deadline. In his stead, backup bigs Richaun Holmes and Eugene Omoruyi will face a formidable opponent in Orlando's jumbo frontcourt Wednesday.

Bagley (back) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against Orlando.

Bagley exited Monday's loss to Utah after 23 minutes due to lower back spasms, and the injury appears on track to sideline him Wednesday. His status will need to be monitored, with Richaun Holmes and Eugene Omoruyi representing Washington's depth options if Bagley is unavailable. Kyle Kuzma has logged just 11.0 percent of his minutes at the center position this season.

Bagley won't return to Monday's game against the Jazz due to a lower back spasm, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports. He totaled six points (2-7 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, four assists and one steal in 23 minutes before leaving.

It's unclear as to when this injury popped up, but Bagley will be shut down for the remainder of the night as a result. Eugene Omoruyi and Richaun Holmes will be asked to eat up minutes at center down the stretch.

Bagley provided 10 points (5-9 FG) and 10 rebounds across 28 minutes during Friday's 140-115 loss to the Clippers.

Bagley produced in line with his seasonal averages in the defeat, but his move to the Wizards has given the Duke product more output as a full-time starter. The Wizards didn't have to part with much to acquire Bagley, and they felt confident enough with him to send Daniel Gafford packing. The 24-year-old has plenty of potential and despite the team's current woes, he has some rebounding value as a waiver-wire target.

Bagley amassed 23 points (11-14 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 34 minutes during Thursday's 134-131 overtime loss to the Lakers.

Daniel Gafford's departure has been eased significantly by Bagley's acquisition, as the sixth-year pro finally has another opportunity to be a full-time starter. Since joining the Wizards, Bagley has averaged 12.9 points, 8.4 rebounds. 1.5 assists and 1.4 blocks over eight games.

Bagley finished with 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-3 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 21 minutes during Friday's 147-106 loss to the Thunder.

Bagley seems to have taken over the starting role at center following the trade that sent Daniel Gafford to the Mavericks before the deadline, but he has responded with three double-doubles over his last four starts. Bagley has been a consistent offensive force for the Wizards regardless of whether he starts or plays off the bench, as he has scored in double digits in 12 of his last 14 appearances, but his new role as a starter certainly boosts his upside in most formats.

Bagley provided 14 points (6-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 133-126 loss to the Pelicans.

The 24-year-old center delivered his second straight double-double, and fourth straight in games during which he played at least 28 minutes, as he settles into a starting role for the Wizards with Daniel Gafford now in Dallas. Bagley was the second overall pick in the 2018 Draft, but his career never took off in Sacramento or Detroit due to injuries and an inconsistent role. A fresh start in Washington, and a complete lack of serious competition for court time in the frontcourt, might provide Bagley with the spark he needs to become a real asset.

Bagley (back) tallied two points (1-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two blocks and one rebound in 15 minutes Saturday in the Wizards' 119-113 loss to the 76ers.

In the aftermath of Thursday's trade deadline, Bagley looked like one of the big winners after the Wizards traded away starting center Daniel Gafford to Dallas and brought in just one new center in Richaun Holmes, who hadn't been a regular part of the Mavericks' rotation prior to being dealt. Holmes was active but didn't see any action Sunday, and though he settled back into Gafford's old starting spot in his return from a four-game absence, Bagley handled only a light role while the Wizards favored small-ball lineups. As he becomes further removed from the back injury and as the Wizards oppose more teams featuring bigger starting centers than the 76ers' Paul Reed, Bagley should see his playing time increase. Fantasy managers who might have been expecting a big blowup performance from Bagley in his return to action with Gafford out of the picture should have patience for at least a few more games.

Bagley (back) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's game versus the 76ers.

Bagley will return to action Saturday after missing the last four games with a back contusion. The 24-year-old big man will likely reclaim the starting center role against Philadelphia.

Bagley (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Celtics.

Friday will mark Bagley's fourth straight game on the sidelines, but maybe he'll be able to get back out there for Saturday's game against the 76ers. With Bagley set to watch Friday's game from the sidelines, and Daniel Gafford being shipped away to Dallas, the Wizards may be forced to give Kyle Kuzma a lot of center minutes if Richaun Holmes is not cleared in time for the game.

Bagley (back) is out Wednesday against Cleveland.

Bagley will miss his third consecutive game due to a low back contusion. Eugene Omoruyi logged 23 minutes in his stead on Sunday and is a candidate to reprise a similar platoon role with Daniel Gafford on Wednesday.

Bagley (back) was a partial participant during Tuesday's practice, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Bagley has missed two consecutive games due to a back contusion. It's encouraging to see him active at practice, but he still has a few hurdles to clear before returning to game action. His status for Wednesday's matchup against the Cavaliers should be released later Tuesday.

Bagley (back) will not play in Sunday's game against the Suns.

Bagley will sit out for a second straight game, and it's unclear if he'll be ready to return Wednesday against the Cavaliers. On Friday versus Miami, the Wizards utilized a lot of smaller lineups with Corey Kispert seeing extended minutes.

Bagley (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Heat.

Bagley was questionable on the Wizards' initial injury report and will be forced to miss his first game since mid-January due to a back contusion. Kyle Kuzma and Anthony Gill are candidates to see additional minutes Friday, while Bagley's next chance to return will be Sunday against Phoenix.

Bagley is questionable for Friday's game against Miami due to a low back contusion.

Bagley hasn't missed a game since mid-January but is dealing with a back contusion ahead of Friday's matchup. Kyle Kuzma and Anthony Gill could see additional minutes if Bailey is sidelined.

Bagley amassed 17 points (7-8 FG, 3-8 FT), 15 rebounds and one steal in 26 minutes during Wednesday's 118-107 loss to Minnesota.

Bagley led all bench players in Wednesday's contest in scoring while leading the Wizards in rebounds and ending as one of two players with a double-double in one of his best performances of the season. Bagley set a season high in rebounds while posting a double-double in four outings, including in three of his last four contests.

Bagley will come off the bench Sunday against Denver.

Bagley joining the second unit upon the return of Daniel Gafford (concussion) is the expected lineup alteration for the Wizards. Sunday will represent a notable litmus test for the extent of Bagley's role while platooning with Gafford for the first time.

Bagley closed with 21 points (8-19 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Saturday's 131-127 loss to the Spurs.

Bagley started for the second game in a row with Daniel Gafford (concussion) sidelined, and the big man posted an impressive stat line while also notching a second straight double-double. Bagley should experience an uptick in his fantasy upside if he stays in a starting role, but that will depend on Gafford's availability ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Nuggets.

Bagley ended with 20 points (10-16 FG, 0-5 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists, three blocks and two steals across 39 minutes during Thursday's 113-109 loss to the Knicks.

Bagley made his first appearance with Washington after being traded from Detroit, leading all Wizards in rebounds and blocks while ending as one of two players with 20 or more points in a double-double performance. Bagley matched a season high in rebounds while posting his third game of the year with 20 or more points and his second double-double outing.

Bagley will start Thursday's game against the Knicks, Chase Hughes of Monumental Sports Network reports.

Bagley getting the start in his debut with the Wizards is not a surprise, as Washington is limited on frontcourt depth with Daniel Gafford (concussion) sidelined. In 26 appearances for the Pistons, Bagley posted averages of 10.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.1 turnovers in 18.4 minutes.

Bagley (trade pending) isn't on the injury report for Thursday's game versus the Knicks.

Bagley appears set to make his Wizards debut Thursday after being acquired from the Pistons on Sunday. Bagley will likely serve as Washington's backup center to Daniel Gafford (concussion), but Bagley could start against the Knicks with Gafford out for the contest.

Bagley (recently traded) will not suit up for Washington in Monday's contest against Detroit, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Bagley has yet to depart for Washington and still needs to complete a physical with his new team, precluding him from playing in Monday's prompt showdown against his former team. Thursday against the Knicks represents his next opportunity to debut, which carries a high likelihood given the Wizards' lack of frontcourt depth.

The Wizards are set to acquire Bagley, Isaiah Livers and two future second-round draft picks from the Pistons on Sunday in exchange for Danilo Gallinari and Mike Muscala, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Livers and the pair of second-round picks are likely viewed as the main assets in the deal for the Wizards, as Bagley is in the second season of a three-year, $37.5 million deal and recently fell out of the Detroit rotation. With Washington sending out its top two reserve centers in Gallinari and Muscala, Bagley could end up slotting in as the Wizards' center on the second unit behind starter Daniel Gafford. Given Gafford's penchant for getting into foul trouble and having his playing time suppressed, Bagley could have a path to 20-plus minutes in some games, but the 24-year-old still has a relatively underwhelming fantasy profile, with his contributions being highly concentrated in the points, rebounds and field-goal percentage categories.

Bagley is not in the starting lineup to face the Nets on Saturday, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Bagley will head back to the bench for this one, as the Pistons will have Ausar Thompson at small forward and Bojan Bogdanovic at power forward. Bagley is averaging 8.2 points and 4.1 rebounds per game when deployed off the bench this season.

Bagley racked up 22 points (10-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds over 31 minutes during Thursday's 119-111 loss to Utah.

Bagley finished as one of three Pistons with 20 or more points while connecting on a team-high-tying mark from the field along with a handful of rebounds in a losing effort. Bagley tied a season-high scoring mark, a total he also tallied Nov. 14 against Atlanta. Bagley has recorded at least 10 points and five rebounds in two of his last three contests.

Bagley recorded 17 points (7-12 FG, 3-4 FT) and one rebound across 23 minutes during Monday's 130-124 loss to the Hawks.

The Pistons competed hard before ultimately suffering their 24th straight loss, and while Bagley, who was returning from straight games in which he didn't see the floor, struggled to leave his mark as a two-way presence, he posted solid scoring figures while replacing Isaiah Stewart (shoulder) in the starting lineup. Bagley also scored in double digits for the first time since Nov. 20, and while he can contribute as a scoring weapon when given enough time, his lack of an established role and his inconsistency limits his upside considerably. The fact that he's playing in one of the worst teams in the league in recent years doesn't help his case, either.

Bagley contributed 12 points (6-11 FG, 0-1 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 22 minutes during Saturday's 146-114 loss to the Bucks.

Bagley entered the starting lineup in place of Isaiah Stewart (shoulder), leading all Pistons players in rebounds and blocks while finishing as one of six players with a double-digit point total in a losing effort. Bagley has tallied at least 10 points and seven rebounds in three games this season, posting his first such performance since last doing so Nov. 14 against Atlanta.

Bagley is in the starting five for Saturday's game versus Milwaukee, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Bagley will replace Isaiah Stewart (shoulder) in the starting lineup Saturday. Bagley is averaging 12.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 blocks in 24.7 minutes across his previous seven starting appearances this season.

Bagley (back) is available for Saturday's game versus the Bucks.

Bagley has been upgraded from questionable to available Saturday after missing the last three games with back spasms. With Isaiah Stewart (shoulder) out, Bagley and James Wiseman should receive the majority of Detroit's minutes at the center position.

Bagley (back) is questionable for Saturday's game versus the Bucks.

Bagley is in danger of missing his fourth straight game Saturday due to back spasms. If he's ruled out, James Wiseman and Isaiah Stewart should continue to receive the majority of Detroit's minutes in the frontcourt.

Bagley (back) is out for Friday's game versus the 76ers.

Bagley will miss his third straight game Friday due to back spasms. James Wiseman and Isaiah Stewart should continue to receive extended minutes in his absence. Bagley's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Milwaukee.

Bagley (back) will not play Wednesday against Philadelphia.

Battling a sprain in his lower right back, Bagley is now set to miss three of Detroit's last four games. Bagley aggravated the injury in his return to action Friday, and being ruled out more than 24 hours in advance of Wednesday's game isn't an encouraging sign His next opportunity to take the court is a rematch against Philadelphia on Friday. Isaiah Stewart and James Wiseman will fill his void in the meantime.

Bagley (back) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Pacers.

As expected, Bagley has been downgraded from doubtful to out and will join Jalen Duren (ankle) on the sidelines. James Wiseman and Isaiah Stewart should see the majority of playing time at center in Bagley's absence.

Bagley (back) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Pacers.

Bagley moved back into the starting lineup Friday due to Jalen Duren (ankle) being sidelined. However, the former left the contest early after developing back spasms. With Duren and Bagley out, James Wiseman is the lone true center available, but Isaiah Stewart could also play more five after operating primarily as a power forward this season.

Bagley was unable to return to Friday's game against the Magic due to his back spasms. He finished with nine points (4-7 FG, 1-2 FT), five rebounds and four turnovers in 23 minutes.

The Pistons deemed Bagley as questionable to return, but they didn't update his status beyond that. He drew the start in place of Jalen Duren (ankle) on Friday, but he failed to make the most of it. If Bagley is unable to play Monday against the Pacers, the Pistons will likely turn to James Wiseman since Duren is expected to miss a couple weeks.

Bagley is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Magic due to back spasms, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley drew the start for Jalen Duren (ankle) on Friday, but played 23 minutes before heading to the locker room with his back issue. Considering the lopsided score when Bagley left the game, there's a good chance his night is done.

Bagley will start Friday's game versus the Magic.

With Jalen Duren (ankle) sidelined, Bagley will draw his seventh start of the season. Over his previous six starts, Bagley has averaged 13.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.2 blocks in 25.0 minutes per game. Duren is expected to miss multiple weeks, but Detroit may shake up its first unit during that stretch, with Jaden Ivey and James Wiseman as other starting options.

Bagley (back) is available for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies.

Bagley's playing time has dramatically dropped over the last week, averaging just 12.3 minutes over his last four appearances. He was also completely left out of the rotation in a game during that stretch. Bagley figures to see another limited role versus Memphis.

Bagley is listed as probable for Wednesday's game versus the Grizzlies due to a low back sprain.

It's unclear when Bagley suffered his back injury, but it isn't expected to keep him out of Wednesday's contest. If Bagley is upgraded to available, he will likely continue to serve as the backup center to Jalen Duren.

Bagley didn't play in Monday's 126-107 loss to Washington due to a coach's decision, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley appeared in each of the Pistons' first 16 games (six starts), averaging 10.9 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 19.1 minutes per game. However, Detroit is in the midst of a double-digit losing streak, so coach Monty Williams opted to shake things up and gave James Wiseman a shot in the rotation. Wiseman was solid in limited work, recording eight points (3-4 FG) and four rebounds in nine minutes, but it's unclear how the backup center rotation will shake out now that Jalen Duren is healthy.

Bagley chipped in 18 points (7-13 FG, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds and one assist over 26 minutes during Monday's 107-103 loss to the Nuggets.

Bagley replaced Kevin Knox in the starting lineup against the Nuggets, finishing second on the team in scoring and rebounds while finishing two boards short of a double-double. Bagley has started in five games this season, tallying at least 10 points and five rebounds in four of those contests. Bagley has recorded 18 or more points along with eight or more rebounds on two occasions this year.

Bagley will start Monday's matchup against the Nuggets.

Bagley operated off the bench the last two games in favor of Kevin Knox, but the former is back in the starting lineup to face Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets. As a starter, Bagley has averaged 14.0 points and 6.0 rebounds in 27.5 minutes per game. Jalen Duren (ankle) has been progressing in his rehab, but as long as he's sidelined, Bagley should handle a sizable role in Detroit's frontcourt.

Bagley registered six points (3-4 FG), two rebounds and three assists across 15 minutes during Sunday's 142-113 loss to the Raptors.

Bagley seems to be losing some ground in Detroit, and that's particularly worrying with Jalen Duren (ankle, questionable) possibly returning from a four-game absence on Monday against Denver. Bagley has been held under 16 minutes in two straight games, as the Pistons have utilized some smaller lineups with Kevin Knox at one of the forward spots. James Wiseman saw 24 minutes Sunday against Toronto, but garbage time was certainly a factor in the blowout.

Bagley (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Cavaliers.

Bagley has been upgraded from questionable to available and will play Friday despite battling an illness. He's drawn a few starts in Jalen Duren's (ankle) stead this season, but even though Duren remains out Friday, Bagley is expected to come off the bench versus Cleveland. Kevin Knox was spotted working with the starters during Friday's shootaround, so he'll presumably start at power forward while Isaiah Stewart moves to center.

Bagley (illness) participated in the team's morning shootaround ahead of Friday's game against the Cavaliers but was operating with the backups, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley is officially questionable for the contest but is trending in the right direction after participating in the shootaround. However, if he's cleared, it's possible he's relegated to a backup role. The Pistons have lost nine straight games, so it wouldn't be surprising to see coach Monty Williams shake things up. If shootaround is any indication, it appears Kevin Knox will slide into the starting lineup, while Isaiah Stewart moves to center in Bagley's stead.

Bagley is questionable for Friday's game against Cleveland due to an illness.

Bagley hasn't yet missed a game this season, but his status for Friday's matchup is in jeopardy due to his illness. Jalen Duren (ankle) remains out Friday, so James Wiseman and Isaiah Stewart could handle increased roles in the frontcourt if Bagley is also sidelined.

Bagley notched 22 points (9-12 FG, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one block in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 126-120 loss to the Hawks.

Bagley notched his first double-double since March of last season, while also logging a season-high 30 minutes. He has firmly beaten out James Wiseman for minutes and will serve a fantasy relevant role while Jalen Duren (ankle) misses time).

Bagley is starting Sunday against the Bulls, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley came off the bench in his last two appearances, but he'll join the starting lineup for the third time this season with Jalen Duren (ankle) unavailable Sunday. Bagley averaged 10.0 points and 4.0 rebounds in 28.5 minutes per game during his previous two starts this season.

Bagley will come off the bench in Wednesday's game against the Bucks, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley drew the start last time out -- landing 10 points, two rebounds and an assist across 24 minutes -- but he'll return to the second unit with Jalen Duren (ankle) back in action. In six games coming off the bench, Bagley has averaged 10.5 points and 5.5 rebounds.

Bagley will start in place of Jalen Duren (ankle) in Monday's game against Golden State, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Bagley picks up an impromptu start with Duren being a late addition to Monday's injury report. Duren is listed as questionable, but the last minute nature of the situation hints at limited or no availability.

Bagley won't start Thursday's game against the Pelicans.

The return of Jalen Duren, who missed Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers due to an ankle injury, sends Bagley back to the bench. Bagley has been playing well of late, scoring in double digits in four games in a row and averaging 11.2 points with 5.6 boards per contest through five outings.

Bagley will start Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

As expected, Bagley will start with Jalen Duren (ankle) sidelined. Bagley has been solid off the bench to start 2023-24, averaging 11.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 17.0 minutes, but he figures to see an uptick in usage and playing time as a starter.

Bagley was participating with the starters during the team's morning shootaround ahead of Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Jalen Duren (ankle) is questionable and didn't participate in the shootaround, so if he's sidelined, it appears Bagley will get a look with the first unit. Duren's potential absence could also allow James Wiseman to see his first action of the season. Over four games this season, Bagley is averaging 11.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 17.0 minutes off the bench.

Bagley will come off the bench for Thursday's preseason game against the Thunder.

Jalen Duren is getting the start at center after recovering from his ankle injury. Bagley is competing with James Wiseman for a rotation spot in Detroit, and both players have responded with strong showings in the preseason.

Bagley is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Thunder, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Bagley will get the nod over Jalen Duren at center, as the latter was deemed inactive due to a mild ankle sprain he suffered in Detroit's preseason opener. Bagley is competing for a bench spot as a frontcourt backup, and a solid showing here would tighten his grip into becoming a rotation piece once the 2023-24 season starts.

Bagley generated 25 points (10-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), seven rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes during Sunday's 130-126 preseason overtime loss to Phoenix.

Coach Monty Williams indicated last week that Bagley and James Wiseman are competing for "the backup big spot," and Bagley made a significant impact during Sunday's preseason opener. Despite coming off the bench, he led the team on the scoreboard with an efficient showing from the floor, and he tied with Wiseman for second on the team in rebounds. Bagley and Wiseman will likely continue to compete for the primary backup role as the regular season approaches, but Bagley had a much better performance Sunday.

Pistons coach Monty Williams said Wednesday that Bagley and James Wiseman are competing for "the backup big spot", Omari Sankofa of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Bagley made 25 starts across 42 appearances last season in Detroit, averaging 12.0 points and 6.4 rebounds in 23.5 minutes. However, it appears that there may only be enough room in the Pistons' rotation for one of Bagley or Wiseman. The backup center role competition between the two could continue throughout training camp and the preseason.

Bagley (concussion) is available for Friday's game against the Pacers.

As expected, Bagley has been upgraded from probable to available and will suit up Friday following a two-game absence. Before the lefty forward suffered the injury, he averaged 17.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 32.3 minutes over his previous six appearances (all starts).

Bagley (concussion) is probable for Friday's game versus the Pacers.

Bagley is expected to play Friday after missing the previous two games with a concussion. He will likely replace Jalen Duren in the starting lineup if he's available.

Bagley (concussion) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Nets.

Bagley is in the concussion protocol and will be unavailable for a second consecutive game. Eugene Omoruyi is a candidate to see increased run once again, while Bagley has just two more opportunities to return during the regular season.

Bagley has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Heat due to a concussion.

Bagley exited Sunday's matchup against the Magic due to a neck issue, and he's entered the concussion protocol for the final week of the regular season. It's unclear when he'll be able to return, but Eugene Omoruyi and Isaiah Livers should see increased playing time in Bagley's absence.

Bagley exited Sunday's game against the Magic with a sore neck and is considered doubtful to return.

Bagley took an inadvertent knee to the back of his head from teammate Jalen Duren, and it's unlikely that he'll return to Sunday's contest. Prior to exiting, Bagley played only nine minutes and posted two points (0-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one rebound.

Bagley closed with 31 points (12-19 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, two blocks and three steals over 41 minutes during Tuesday's 129-107 loss to the Hawks.

It's the best scoring effort of the season for the fifth-year big, topping the 21 points he supplied in each of the final two games in February. Bagley missed three games in March with an ankle injury, but when healthy he's taken on a key role in the Pistons frontcourt, averaging 15.2 points, 8.4 boards, 1.5 assists and 1.0 blocks over his last 10 contests while shooting 53.8 percent from the floor.

Bagley supplied 14 points (6-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one block in 30 minutes during Sunday's 112-100 loss to the Heat.

Bagley returned to the lineup after missing the last three games due to an ankle injury, finishing as one of six Pistons players to surpass the double-digit scoring total Sunday. Bagley has tallied 10 or more points 22 times this season.

Bagley is starting Sunday's game against Miami, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Bagley missed the last three games due to an ankle injury and will have his minutes monitored Sunday, but he'll be back in the starting lineup while Eugene Omoruyi retreats to the bench. Over Bagley's last five appearances, he's averaged 11.4 points and 6.8 rebounds in 28.4 minutes per game.

Head coach Dwane Casey said Bagley (ankle) will have his minutes monitored during Sunday's game against Miami, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Bagley is set to suit up for the first time following a three-game absence, but it sounds like the Pistons will be cautious with the lefty big man, which may mean he'll operate off the bench. Across 15 games as a reserve, Bagley has averaged 10.7 points and 6.9 rebounds, which isn't too far off his averages as a starter -- 11.8 points and 5.5 rebounds in 18 games.

Bagley (ankle) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Heat.

Bagley is set to return following a three-game absence. It wouldn't be shocking if he moves straight into the starting lineup, given he started in his previous five appearances since suffering the injury. He's averaging 13.4 points and 9.1 rebounds across 26.6 minutes per game over his last eight contests (five starts).

Dwane Casey said he expects Marvin Bagley to miss "the next few games" with his ankle injury, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Bagley exited Saturday's game after rolling his ankle, and now it looks like he'll be missing both games of Detroit's upcoming back-to-back set. James Wiseman and Jalen Duren will hold down Detroit's frontcourt while Bagley is out.

Bagley is dealing with right ankle soreness and will not return Saturday against the Pacers.

This is unfortunate as Bagley has had some awful injury luck. With the Pistons already short on bodies, they will need to heavily rely on Isaiah Livers and Eugene Omoruyi.

Bagley (ankle) will play in Saturday's game against the Pacers.

As expected, Bagley will suit up for Saturday's tilt after initially being listed as probable with right ankle soreness. Since entering the starting lineup four games ago, Bagley has averaged 12.8 points,7.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks across 30.0 minutes and should be expected to handle a similar workload Saturday.

Bagley is probable for Saturday's game versus the Pacers due to right ankle soreness.

It is unclear when Bagley picked up his ankle injury, but it isn't expected to keep him out Saturday. The 23-year-old forward is averaging 12.8 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.3 blocks in 30.0 minutes in his last four games since being inserted in the starting lineup.

Bagley recorded 20 points (8-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists, three blocks and one steal in 34 minutes during Saturday's 114-90 loss to Cleveland.

Bagley had his best game of the season Saturday, adding four combined steals and blocks to his usual points/boards stat set. The Pistons are missing a couple of key frontcourt pieces rights now, affording Bagley plenty of run. While he won't be this good all too often, he is worth rostering in 12-team formats, if not only for his ability to flirt with a double-double on a nightly basis.

Bagley will start Saturday's game against the Cavaliers, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Saturday marks Bagley's first start since Dec. 7, and he's getting the nod alongside James Wiseman for a tough frontcourt matchup against Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley. Over the past three games, Bagley has averaged 16.7 points and 13.0 boards in 23.7 minutes.

Bagley totaled 21 points (10-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 12 rebounds and one assist over 24 minutes during Monday's 117-106 loss to the Hornets.

That's now two double-doubles in two games since Bagley returned from a hand issue that had kept him sidelined since early January. Isaiah Lively (ankle) joined Jalen Duren (ankle) and Isaiah Stewart (hip) on the injured list Monday, and while none of those injuries are viewed as serious, Bagley could find himself in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Bulls.

Bagley (hand) generated 21 points (9-19 FG, 3-8 FT, 0-2 3Pt), 18 rebounds and one block across 28 minutes in Saturday's 95-91 loss to the Raptors.

Making his return to action after a 20-game absence, Bagley came off the bench in his first appearance since Jan. 2 and proceeded to lead the Pistons in both points and rebounds. Despite his strong production in both categories, Bagley's overall fantasy line was still lacking in just about every other area, including in efficiency from both the field and free-throw line. Though Bagley would have some appeal in 12-team points leagues if he can produce double-doubles on a regular basis, it's unclear if he'll receive this sort of playing time on a regular basis. The Pistons were without top center Jalen Duren (ankle), resulting in Bagley and fill-in starter James Wiseman (20 minutes) splitting the playing time at center. Once Duren is healthy, Bagley or Wiseman could find himself as the odd man out, or head coach Dwane Casey could include all three centers in the rotation in an arrangement that would limit the fantasy upside of each player.

Coach Dwane Casey said Bagley (hand) is available for Saturday's game versus the Raptors, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Bagley will return to the lineup for the first time since Jan. 2 due to recovering from hand surgery. Casey expects Bagley to replace Jalen Duren's minutes, meaning the 23-year-old forward could be inserted into the starting lineup.

Bagley (hand) is probable for Saturday's game versus the Raptors.

Bagley is expected to return to the lineup after missing the previous 20 games recovering from right hand surgery. The 23-year-old big man may have a minutes restriction for his few contests back.

Bagley (hand) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup against the Magic.

As expected, Bagley has officially been ruled out after initially being listed as doubtful. The absence will mark his 20th straight missed game, but it appears he's getting closer to a return after going through most of Wednesday's practice. Bagley's next chance to suit up will come Saturday versus Toronto.

Bagley (hand) is doubtful for Thursday's game versus the Magic.

Bagley returned to practice Wednesday but will likely miss his 20th straight game with a right hand injury. The 23-year-old forward is nearing a return, and his next to suit up is Saturday's matchup with the Raptors.

Bagley (hand) went through most of practice Wednesday and is close to returning, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Bagley has missed the last 19 games while recovering from right hand surgery. While he doesn't have an official injury status for Thursday's game versus Orlando, if he's unable to suit up, his next chance to play will be Saturday's matchup with Toronto.

Bagley (hand) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against the Celtics.

Bagley, who hasn't played since Jan. 2, will remain out for the Pistons' final game before the All-Star break, but head coach Dwane Casey said Friday that the 2018 first-round pick is "getting close" to a return. He'll have over a week to continue rehabbing before Detroit returns to action Feb. 23 against the Magic, so hopefully Orlando releases another update before then.

Pistons head coach Dwane Casey said Friday that Bagley (hand) is "getting close" to a return to the court, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

At the same time, Casey acknowledged that he wasn't sure on a timeline for a return for Bagley, who will most likely sit out the Pistons' final game before the All-Star break Wednesday in Boston before being reassessed during the midseason intermission. Prior to fracturing his right hand in early January and undergoing surgery, he had been serving as the backup center behind Jalen Duren, but Bagley could find himself outside of the rotation once healthy after the Pistons brought aboard another former No. 2 overall pick -- James Wiseman -- at last week's trade deadline.

Bagley underwent surgery to repair a fracture of the third and fourth metacarpals in his right hand Thursday and will be re-evaluated in six weeks, NBA writer Marc Stein reports.

Bagley was already expected to require a lengthy absence due to the hand injury he sustained Monday against the Trail Blazers, and he opted to undergo a procedure that will sideline him for at least six weeks. A more precise timetable for his return to game action is unlikely to be revealed until he's evaluated by the team's medical staff.

Bagley (hand) will miss six-to-eight weeks, Vincent Goodwill of Yahoo Sports reports.

Balgey will likely need surgery to address his two broken fingers on his right hand which he injured during the Pistons' loss to the Trail Blazers on Monday. With Bagley now slated to miss six-to-eight weeks, Nerleans Noel will presumably slide into the rotation as a backup center with Jalen Duren handling the starting role.

Bagley (hand) is expected to miss extended time, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Bagley suffered a right hand injury during Monday's game versus the Trail Blazers and was unable to rejoin the action. Unfortunately, it appears the issue isn't a minor one and will prevent him from taking the floor for a while. The big man is undergoing additional testing to determine the next steps in his recovery process.

Bagley won't return to Monday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a right hand injury, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

Bagley suffered the injury sometime during the first half, and the issue is significant enough to hold him out the rest of the way. He'll be considered day-to-day until more information surfaces. Jalen Duren and Nerlens Noel should see the majority of the minutes at center in the second half

Bagley posted 18 points (8-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 29 minutes during Saturday's 116-104 victory over the Timberwolves.

Bagley had just his fourth double-double of the season Saturday, stepping into a larger role as a result of Jalen Duren being in foul trouble. After starting 13 of his first 14 games, Bagley has since been relegated to a 20-minute role off the bench. He is barely inside the top 200 over the past month, averaging just 9.5 points per game to go with 5.9 rebounds. Despite what was an encouraging evening, managers would be well-advised not to go chasing this performance.

Coach Dwane Casey noted Bagley's (illness) minutes "may be sporadic or shortened" for Friday's game against the Bulls, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Casey also noted that Bagley hadn't been able to participate in any live scrimmages since coming down with the non-COVID illness that held him out of two games. Considering Bagley has averaged 19.0 minutes per game in his last five and will likely face restrictions Friday, he should be avoided in most fantasy formats.

Bagley (illness) is available for Friday's game versus the Bulls.

Bagley has been upgraded from questionable to available after missing the previous two contests with a non-COVID illness. The 2018 No. 2 pick is averaging 9.8 points and 6.0 rebounds in 19.0 minutes across his last five appearances.

Bagley (illness) is questionable for Friday's matchup with the Bulls.

Bagley is questionable to miss his third consecutive game Friday due to a non-COVID illness. His potential return would likely mean reduced playing time for Jalen Duren and Nerlens Noel.

Bagley (illness) is out for Wednesday's game against the Magic.

Bagley will miss his second straight game with a non-COVID illness. His next chance to suit up will be Friday's matchup with the Bulls.

Bagley (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Clippers.

Bagley is dealing with a non-COVID illness and will be unavailable for the first time since Nov. 11. Isaiah Stewart could see increased playing time against the Clippers.

Bagley is questionable for Monday's matchup against the Clippers due to a non-COVID illness, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley was a late addition to the injury report with an illness, which doesn't bode well for his chances to suit up Monday. If he's unable to play, Kevin Knox, Nerlens Noel and Saddiq Bey would be candidates for backup minutes behind Isaiah Stewart and Jalen Duren.

Bagley produced 10 points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-8 FT), 10 rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes during Wednesday's 113-93 loss to Philadelphia.

Bagley led Detroit on the glass while posting his fourth double-double of the season, securing his highest rebound total since hauling in a season-high 13 boards Dec. 1 against Dallas. Bagley has reached double figures in scoring in six of his last seven outings.

Bagley (knee) is not on the injury report for Friday's game against the Kings.

Bagley left Wednesday's win over the Hornets due to right knee soreness but will be fine for Friday. He's come off the bench over the past three games as coach Dwane Casey has gone with Isaiah Stewart and rookie Jalen Duren in the frontcourt.

Bagley (knee) won't return to Wednesday's game against the Hornets, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley will remain on the sideline for the remainder of the game Wednesday with a right knee injury. The forward will likely be tabbed questionable heading into the Pistons' next contest Friday against the Kings.

Bagley is questionable to return to Wednesday's game against Charlotte due to a sore right knee, Mike Curtis of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley suffered the injury sometime during the first half. The forward posted four points (2-3 FG) and three rebounds in 10 minutes before exiting.

Bagley posted 14 points (6-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-5 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and four blocks across 20 minutes during Friday's 114-103 loss to the Grizzlies.

Bagley moved to the bench, ceding his starting spot to rookie Jalen Duren. Despite the move, Bagley put together a well-rounded line, contributing on both ends of the floor. While the production was nice, the fact he played only 20 minutes is a little concerning for anyone invested in him. He remains a hold, for now, but that could change should his role stick at 20 minutes per night moving forward.

Bagley will come off the bench for Friday's game against Memphis.

Bagley has struggled over his last three contests, averaging 4.0 points and 3.7 rebounds in 20.0 minutes per game which has led the Pistons to start Jalen Duren at the five instead. Although Bagley's demotion doesn't fare well for his season-long status, he has shown more than enough ability to perform in limited minutes and could receive a higher usage rate off the bench. He is still a player worth monitoring going forward.

Bagley provided zero points (0-4 FG) and two rebounds over 20 minutes during Wednesday's 104-98 loss to the Pelicans.

Bagley had a stretch between late November and early December in which he scored in double figures in nine of 10 matchups and averaged 14.3 points and 7.3 rebounds in 25.5 minutes per game. However, he's shot just 31.6 percent from the floor over his last three appearances and has averaged 4.0 points and 3.7 rebounds in 20.0 minutes per game during that time. Wednesday's game marked his worst fantasy performance of the season, but he proved last month that he still has the ability to be a reliable contributor.

Bagley ended with 19 points (7-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Thursday's 131-125 overtime win over the Mavericks.

Bagley recorded his third double-double of the season in the overtime win, posting a season-high resounding total while matching a season-high scoring mark. Bagley has scored 15 or more points along with 10 or more rebounds twice this year.

Bagley (head) will suit up for Tuesday's game versus the Knicks.

Bagley was listed as questionable for the contest due to migraine problems, but it appears they have subsided enough to allow him to take part in the contest. Bagley should continue his duties as the team's starting center and is coming off of back-to-back double-doubles, his first two of the season.

Bagley is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Knicks due to migraines.

Bagley has started each of the Pistons' previous eight games and is averaging 13.9 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.1 steals during that stretch, including back-to-back double-doubles. However, it appears the talented big man may need to take a night off due to a lingering migraine. Isiah Stewart (toe) is also questionable, so rookie first-round pick Jalen Duren may be in store for an increased role against New York.

Bagley posted 19 points (9-10 FG, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 125-116 victory over the Jazz.

Bagley was ultra efficient from the field in the win, missing only one of his 10 shot attempts. That resulted in a season-high 19 points despite playing just 21 minutes. Bagley has scored in double figures in all but one of his six contests since moving into the starting lineup Nov. 14.

Bagley totaled 16 points (6-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and one steal across 29 minutes during Monday's 115-111 loss to the Raptors.

Bagley drew his first start of the 2022-23 season, as the Pistons decided to shake up the first unit. The Duke product entered the starting lineup in place of Saddiq Bey, and he shot well from the floor. Bagley has now appeared in two contests this year after missing significant time with a sprained right knee, and it's a positive sign that he saw such an uptick in playing time in his second matchup.

Bagley is starting Monday against the Raptors, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.

Bagley made his season debut Saturday against the Celtics and posted four points, four rebounds, an assist and two blocks in 17 minutes off the bench. He should see increased usage Monday since he'll draw the start over Saddiq Bey.

Bagley (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Celtics.

After missing the start of the season with a sprained right knee, Bagley will debut Saturday. He'll presumably have his minutes monitored. His presence could cut into the roles of Isaiah Stewart, Isaiah Livers and Jalen Duren.

Bagley (knee) is probable for Saturday's game against the Celtics.

Bagley was questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks but ended up sitting out. It seems more likely he makes his season debut Saturday. His return could impact the roles of Isaiah Stewart, Jalen Duren and Isaiah Livers.

Bagley (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Knicks.

Bagley was questionable ahead of Friday's matchup but will be held out once again due to his right knee sprain. It's unclear whether he'll be able to make his season debut Saturday against Boston.

Bagley (knee) is questionable for Friday's game at New York.

Bagley was doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Celtics, suggesting he was nearing a return. His improvement to questionable ahead of Friday's game means he's truly close to full health. Once available, Bagley could cut into the workloads of Isaiah Stewart, Jalen Duren and Isaiah Livers.

Bagley (knee) has officially been ruled out for Wednesday's game versus the Celtics.

Bagley will have to wait until at least Friday's game versus the Knicks to make his season debut due to a right knee sprain. However, Bagley originally being considered doubtful for Wednesday's game is a good sign that the 2018 No. 2 pick should return to the court soon.

Bagley (knee) is listed doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Celtics.

Bagley has been working back from a right knee sprain and practiced Sunday, but he sat out Monday and appears headed for another absence Wednesday as well. The team still hasn't provided a target date for the big man's season debut.

Bagley (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Thunder, Johnny Kane of Bally Sports Detroit reports.

Bagley participated in practice Sunday, but he'll remain sidelined Monday due to the right MCL sprain he suffered Oct. 13. He was expected to be out 3-to-4 weeks, so it seems like he's on track to return sometime during the Pistons' upcoming four-game week. Following Monday's contest, Bagley's next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against the Celtics.

Bagley (knee) participated in Sunday's practice, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Pistons head coach Dwane Casey didn't reveal the extent of Bagley's participation, but even if the big man was back on the court Sunday in a limited capacity, he would seem to have a chance at making his season debut during the upcoming week. When Bagley suffered a right MCL sprain Oct. 13, he was handed a 3-to-4-week re-evaluation timeline. With that timeline having come to an end, Bagley appears to have advanced to the day-to-day phase of his recovery. Whenever he debuts, Bagley may not take back a sizable role right away, and he may have to fend off rookie first-round pick Jalen Duren for a spot in Casey's rotation.

Coach Dwane Casey said Sunday that Bagley has been doing 1-on-1 work and is on pace to return soon, Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Bagley has yet to make his season debut due to right knee sprain, but it appears he could return to action sooner than later. When available, the talented big man figures to be one of the Pistons' top frontcourt reserves behind Isaiah Stewart and Bojan Bogdanovic.

Bagley (knee) has avoided a serious injury but will miss time to begin the regular season, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Bagley sustained his knee injury during Tuesday's preseason game and underwent an MRI. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, but he should at least be considered out for next Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Magic. A better timetable for his return should come into focus based on how he responds to treatment. Nerlens Noel (foot) and Jalen Duran are candidates to see increased run for Detroit early in the year.

Bagley (knee) will undergo an MRI on his right knee after injuring it in Tuesday's preseason game versus the Thunder, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sportsreports.

Bagley exited Tuesday's game early after slipping on a wet spot and suffering a non-contact injury. The 2018 No. 2 pick has struggled to say healthy in his young career, with 62 games played being a career-high in rookie season. Bagley will have a clearer timeline once the results of his MRI return.

Bagley won't return to Tuesday's preseason game against the Thunder due to a right knee injury, Johnny Kane of Bally Sports Detroit reports.

Bagley went down hard on his right knee and was unable to put any weight on it during the first half of Tuesday's contest. As a result, the Pistons won't take any chances with their forward. Balgey's status for Thursday's final preseason contest versus the Grizzlies will also likely be up in the air, as the Pistons would want him healthy for the beginning of the regular season starting next Wednesday.

Bagley will start Friday's preseason game against the Pelicans.

Bagley will get the start at center while Isaiah Stewart moves to power forward, leaving Bojan Bogdanovic to operate off the bench. Bagley signed a sizable three-year deal with Detroit this offseason after posting 14.6 points and 6.8 rebounds for the Pistons last year.

Bagley and the Pistons agreed to terms Thursday on a three-year, $37 million contract, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.

In recent weeks, the Pistons had made it clear that they intended to bring Bagley back in free agency, and Thursday's agreement will do just that. While Bagley has failed to live up to expectations as the No. 2 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, the Pistons apparently like what they saw from the 23-year-old in his 18 appearances after he came over from Sacramento at the trade deadline. Across 27.2 minutes per game, Bagley posted 14.6 points, 6.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists in a Pistons uniform. At present, Bagley projects to start at power forward as part of a projected lineup that could include Cade Cunningham, Jaden Ivey, Saddiq Bey and one of Isaiah Stewart, Nerlens Noel, Kelly Olynyk or 2022 lottery pick Jalen Duren.

Bagley (hip) will not play Sunday against the 76ers.

Bagley will end up missing the final five games of the season with a strained left hip. The season was a mixed bag for the forward after initially being out of the rotation in Sacramento, being worked in later, and then being dealt to Detroit. He's a restricted free agent this offseason, and he'll have one of the toughest markets to gauge in recent memory of a top draft pick. Arguably his best season was his rookie year when he averaged 14.9 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks on 50.4 percent shooting.

Bagley (hip) will not play Friday against Milwaukee.

This will be the fourth straight absence for Bagley, who continues to nurse a strained left hip. At this point, it's unlikely he plays in the regular season finale Sunday at Philly.

Bagley (hip) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against Dallas.

A strained hip will keep Bagley sidelined for a third straight game as the Pistons near the end of the regular season. Consider him day-to-day ahead of Friday's home finale against the Bucks.

Bagley (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers.

Bagley will be unavailable for a second straight game after he suffered a left hip strain in Thursday's win over Philadelphia. Isaiah Livers and Braxton Key should continue to see additional run Sunday.

Bagley (hip) is out for Friday's game against the Thunder.

Bagley suffered the strained left hip Thursday in the win over the 76ers, and he'll need more time to recover before seeing the court again. In his absence, more action could be available for Isaiah Livers and Braxton Key.

Bagely (hip) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's contest with the 76ers, Lauren L. Williams of MLive.com reports.

Bagley appeared to land awkwardly after colliding with Joel Embiid in the third quarter. The forward finished the game with eight points, eight rebounds, two assists and a block in 24 minutes. Expect Isaiah Livers and Kelly Olynyk to see larger workloads for the remainder of Thursday's matchup.

Bagley suffered a left hip injury and is considered questionable to return to Thursday's matchup with the 76ers, Johnny Kane of Bally Sports Detroit reports.

Bagley appeared to land awkwardly after running into Joel Embiid in Thursday's contest. The forward held his hip and headed straight for the locker room. Expect Isaiah Livers and Kelly Olynyk to see extended minutes if Bagley is unable to return.

Bagley accumulated 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 130-123 loss to the Nets.

After totaling 52 points across the two prior games, Bagley crashed back to Earth on Tuesday, taking single-digit shot attempts for the first time in three games and recording his lowest scoring total since March 19. He may be in and out of the starting lineup down the stretch, but he's proving to be a serviceable fantasy option with Detroit. He's scored in double-digits in all but one of his past 15 outings.

Bagley amassed 27 points (11-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), seven rebounds and one block across 35 minutes during Sunday's 104-102 loss to the Knicks.

Although Bagley filled in for Jerami Grant (calf) in the loss, Bagley's inclusion into the starting five gave the Pistons a nice spark and kept the team in the game until the final seconds. The team started Cory Joseph at point guard, it wouldn't be surprising to see Cade Cinninhgham sliding to that role, allowing Grant, Bagley, Saddiq Bey and Isaiah Stewart to fill out the first unit.

Bagley will start Sunday's contest against the Knicks, Keith Langlois of the Pistons' official site reports.

With Jerami Grant (calf) sidelined, Bagley will draw his sixth start as a Piston. Over his last 11 appearances, the lefty has averaged 15.5 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 29.1 minutes per game.

Bagley recorded a team-high 25 points (10-16 FG, 0-3 3PT, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, two steals and one block across 35 minutes in Friday's 100-97 loss to the Wizards.

Although he came off the bench, Bagley tied Cade Cunningham with a team-high 35 minutes played.He has now scored double-digits in 13 of the 15 games he has played since being acquired by the Pistons. All-in-all he is averaging 14.4 points, 6.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.3 blocks and 0.4 triples across 27.1 minutes in Detroit.

Bagley will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Hawks, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.

With Jerami Grant rejoining Detroit's starting unit Wednesday, Bagley will shift back to a reserve role. He contributed 15 points, nine rebounds and two assists over 29 minutes as a starter during Monday's loss to the Trail Blazers.

Bagley will start Monday's game against the Trail Blazers, Lauren L. Williams of MLive.com reports.

Bagley played only 14 minutes off the bench Saturday against Cleveland but will return to the lineup Monday with Jerami Grant (knee) unavailable. Bagley has averaged 13.6 points, 6.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 26.4 minutes across 12 games since being acquired by Detroit.

Bagley will come off the bench Saturday against the Cavaliers, Serena Winters of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

With Detroit much healthier in general, but especially the frontcourt, Bagley will head back to the bench. Fantasy managers should still expect him to play a significant role. Over his past six appearances, he's averaging 16.2 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 steals in 32.0 minutes.

Bagley will start Thursday's game against the Magic.

With Jerami Grant (knee) sidelined, there's an open spot in the starting five, and it'll go to Bagley, who will slide in at power forward alongside Isaiah Stewart and Saddiq Bey. In three previous starts in a Pistons uniform, Bagley averaged 15.0 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 31.3 minutes.

Bagley ended Tuesday's 105-98 loss to the Heat with 13 points (6-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 30 minutes.

Bagley managed to walk away with a decent fantasy line Tuesday, despite moving back to the bench. With Isaiah Stewart back in action, it was Bagley who ceded his starting role, much to the disappointment of anyone who had grabbed him over the past week. While he could remain with the second unit, at least for the time being, Stewart is certainly no stranger to foul issues, something that was evident again tonight. Bagley is worth holding with the Pistons likely to continue getting him out there on a nightly basis.

Bagley racked up 15 points (7-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds and three assists across 32 minutes during Sunday's 106-102 loss to the Clippers.

It will be difficult for the Pistons to bench Bagley upon Isaiah Stewart's (knee) return. The former first-round pick put together another good performance in the paint, following up on a solid 20/11 double-double in the previous game. His tenure with the Kings was rocky and married by injuries, but Bagley could find a nice role and job security in Detroit if he can stay healthy. Bagely is arguably a more imposing frontcourt presence than Stewart, so it will be interesting to see how the Pistons divide their minutes when Stewart returns.

Bagley had 20 points (9-15 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and two steals over 34 minutes during Friday's 114-103 loss to the Celtics.

Bagley was efficient from inside the arc en route to his first 20-point performance since joining Detroit and grabbed a team-high 11 rebounds, recording his sixth double-double of the campaign. Across eight games as a Piston, the 2018 No. 2 overall pick has averaged 14.1 points and 7.1 rebounds in 26.1 minutes per game. Bagley has drawn back-to-back starts and figures to be a mainstay in the starting lineup for the duration of Isaiah Stewart's absence.

Bagley will start Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Lauren L. Williams of MLive.com reports.

Bagley missed three games with an ankle injury before returning to action Friday, and he's averaged 18.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 steals in 29.0 minutes over the past two contests. He'll make his first start since being acquired by the Pistons on Feb. 10 since Isaiah Stewart (knee) is set to be out for at least the next week.

Bagley ended with 19 points (9-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals over 36 minutes during Monday's 113-110 overtime win over the Hawks.

Bagley saw a season-high 36 minutes Monday, and hadn't exceeded 27 minutes in five prior games since being acquired by Detroit. He displayed a strong relationship with Cade Cunningham throughout the game, with the duo connecting on a few alley-oops. Bagley looked especially good in transition, and is capable of nightly production in this range.

Bagley chipped in 18 points (9-16 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one steal in 22 minutes during Friday's 111-106 victory over the Pacers.

Bagley returned to action Friday following a three-game absence due to an ankle injury and registered his most points (18), rebounds (eight) and assists (two) since being traded to the Pistons. Across five contests with Detroit, the four-year big man has averaged 12.8 points and 6.0 rebounds in 22.2 minutes per game. Bagley appears to have carved out a solid role for his new squad and should continue to be a solid producer down the stretch.

Bagley (ankle) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's contest against the Pacers.

Bagley has been sidelined for three consecutive games, but it appears he will return to action Friday. Across four contests with the Pistons, the fourth-year forward has averaged 11.5 points and 5.5 rebounds in 22.3 minutes per game.

Bagley (ankle) is out Thursday against the Raptors.

Bagley was considered doubtful ahead of Thursday's matchup, and he'll officially be held out for a third consecutive game. His next chance to suit up will be Friday against Indiana.

Bagley (ankle) is doubtful to play Thursday against the Raptors.

Bagley is likely to sit out for a third straight game due to a sprained left ankle. Assuming that's the case, his next chance to play will arrive Friday against the Pacers.

Bagley (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the Wizards, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.

As expected, Bagley will sit out a second straight contest after spraining his ankle during Saturday's loss to the Celtics. In his absence, Kelly Olynyk and Isaiah Livers are likely candidates for increased roles.

Bagley (ankle) has been downgraded to doubtful for Tuesday's matchup with the Wizards.

Bagley sprained his ankle during Saturday's loss to the Celtics and sat out the second leg of the Pistons' back-to-back set Sunday. He was previously listed as questionable, but he's now expected to be sidelined for a second straight game. In his absence, Kelly Olynyk and Isaiah Livers are likely candidates for increased roles.

Bagley (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Wizards.

Bagley sat out the second leg of the Pistons' back-to-back set Sunday after spraining his left ankle during Saturday's loss to the Celtics. However, he'll have a shot to return to action Tuesday. The recently acquired big man has scored in double figures in three of his first four contests with Detroit and appears to be settling into a nice role with his new squad.

Bagley (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Hornets.

Bagley will sit out the second leg of the back-to-back set after he sprained his left ankle late in Saturday's 113-104 loss to the Celtics. With Bagley sidelined, Kelly Olynyk should operate as the Pistons' clear top reserve in the frontcourt, with the 30-year-old likely to see run at both power forward and center behind starters Jerami Grant and Isaiah Stewart.

Bagley (ankle) didn't return to Saturday's game against the Celtics.

Bagley was labeled as questionable to return after exiting Saturday's matchup early in the fourth quarter, but he remained out for the closing minutes. His status for Sunday's game against Charlotte isn't yet clear, but Kelly Olynyk and Saddiq Bey should see increased work if Bagley is unavailable.

Bagley is questionable to return to Saturday's game against Boston due to a left ankle injury.

Bagley went to the locker room early in the fourth quarter of Saturday's matchup, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to return. If he remains sidelined, Kelly Olynyk and Saddiq Bey should see increased run to close out the game.

Bagley amassed 16 points (8-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt), four rebounds and one block in 27 minutes during Thursday's 106-103 win over Cleveland.

Bagley had his first strong offensive performance with his new team Thursday, making a team-high eight field goals. Bagley is likely to continue settling into Detroit's rotation, but he's regularly capable of this type of offensive production when given sufficient usage.

Bagley racked up 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-6 FT), eight rebounds and one assist across 21 minutes during Monday's 103-94 loss to Washington.

Bagley's shooting touch was off, especially from the free-throw line. His rust was justified, as in addition to being traded across the country, Bagley also hasn't played since the end of January due to an ankle injury. Nonetheless, he co-led Detroit in minutes off the bench and is a candidate to begin making a bigger nightly impact moving forward.

Bagley (ankle) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's contest against the Wizards.

Bagley missed the final seven games of his Kings tenure due to an ankle injury and didn't suit up for his first game with the Pistons on Friday. However, after practicing Sunday, the 2018 No. 2 overall pick has cleared the injury report and is expected to make his Pistons debut Monday. Bagley will likely have to compete for backup frontcourt minutes with the likes of Kelly Olynyk and Hamidou Diallo.

Bagley (ankle) participated in practice Sunday, Rod Beard of The Detroit News reports.

Bagley missed the final seven games of his Kings tenure due to an ankle injury and didn't suit up for his first game with the Pistons on Friday. However, the 2018 No. 2 overall pick appears to be trending in the right direction, and after practicing Sunday, he has a good chance to make his Detroit debut against the Wizards on Monday.

Bagley (ankle/trade pending) won't play Friday against the Hornets.

Bagley was sidelined the past seven games by an ankle injury for Sacramento before being traded to Detroit on Thursday, and he won't be available for his new team Friday with the trade not yet official. It's unclear when the 22-year-old will be healthy enough to make his debut for the Pistons, but his next opportunity will come Monday versus the Wizards.

Bagley (ankle) was traded from the Kings to the Pistons on Thursday as part of a four-term trade. Donte DiVincenzo will be traded from the Bucks to the Kings, Serge Ibaka will be dealt from the Clippers to the Bucks, while Josh Jackson and Trey Lyles will be traded from the Pistons to the Kings, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Bagley served as a starter in each of his final 16 appearances with the Kings and averaged 10.6 points and 7.8 rebounds in 24.4 minutes per game during that time. However, he sat out each of the last six games due to an ankle injury. Once he's healthy, the 22-year-old should take on a bench role behind Jerami Grant and Isaiah Stewart in Detroit's frontcourt.

Bagley (ankle) is out for Wednesday's matchup with the Timberwolves, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley is set to miss his sixth consecutive game due to the ankle injury. With Maurice Harkless also ruled out and Domantas Sabonis' status uncertain, Chimezie Metu and Harrison Barnes look to be in line for significant minutes Wednesday.

Bagley (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves.

Bagley has missed the last five games due to a left ankle sprain but will have a chance to return for the second half of a back-to-back set against Minnesota. If he remains out, Chimezie Metu and Harrison Barnes should see increased run.

Bagley (ankle) is out Tuesday against the Timberwolves, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Bagley will miss a fifth straight game due to a left ankle sprain. His next chance to play is Wednesday, which is also against the Timberwolves.

Bagley (ankle) is expected to be a game-time decision ahead of Tuesday's contest against the Timberwolves, Franklin Cartoscelli of KHTK Radio reports.

Bagley has missed four straight games due to a sprained left ankle, but he has a chance to return to game action Tuesday. The talented big man was limited during Monday's practice and is expected to be listed as questionable for a second consecutive contest.

Bagley (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Thunder, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Bagley will miss his fourth straight game due to a sprained left ankle. In his absence, Maurice Harkless will once again draw the start next to Richaun Holmes in Sacramento's frontcourt.

Bagley (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Thunder.

Bagley has missed the past three contests due to a sprained left ankle. If he returns Saturday, he could be on a minutes limit.

Bagley (ankle) is out Thursday against the Warriors.

Bagley is missing a third straight game. Maurice Harkless should start again at forward.

Bagley (ankle) is out Wednesday against the Nets.

Because of a sprained left ankle, Bagley will sit out a second straight game. Maurice Harkless will presumably draw another start.

Bagley has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Knicks due to a left ankle sprain.

Bagley had started each of the last five games and averaged 10.2 points and 6.6 rebounds in 22.2 minutes per contest. Chimezie Metu, Harrison Barnes and Maurice Harkless should see increased run against New York.

Bagley closed with 17 points (7-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds and one block over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 133-131 loss to the Pistons.

Bagley moved back into the starting lineup Wednesday after missing the Kings' previous contest with a shoulder injury. The fourth-year forward continued his recent string of solid production, as he has collected at least nine boards in each of his past four games while averaging 16.8 points over that span. After being buried on the Sacramento's bench early in the season, Bagley has emerged as an important piece in the team's frontcourt, raising his season averages to 9.4 points and 7.3 rebounds per contest.

Bagley will start Wednesday's game against the Pistons, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Bagley will reclaim his spot in the starting five following a one-game absence due to right shoulder soreness. As a result, Chimezie Metu will shift back to a bench role. The 22-year-old is averaging 9.1 points and 7.3 rebounds in 21.8 minutes per game this season.

Bagley is off the injury report for Wednesday's matchup against the Pistons.

Bagley is returning following a one-game absence due to right shoulder soreness. This month, he's averaging 10.5 points and 8.8 rebounds in 24.9 minutes.

Bagley won't play Sunday against the Rockets due to right shoulder soreness, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Bagley is a late scratch for Sunday's contest due to the injury, which he presumably picked up while posting 26 points (12-20 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and two blocks Friday versus Houston. Chimezie Metu will start in his place and should have an increased role for Sacramento.

Bagley totaled 26 points (12-20 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 33 minutes during Friday's 126-114 win over the Rockets.

This was easily Bagley's most productive game of the season, as he notched his first double-double since Dec. 13 and added a pair of swats for his first multi-block game of the campaign. The 2018 No. 2 overall pick has now started 11 straight games for the Kings, who may be looking to showcase him ahead of the Feb. 10 trade deadline.

Bagley (hand) isn't listed on the injury report for Friday's game against the Rockets.

Bagley had X-rays come back negative after suffering the injury Wednesday against the Lakers, and he's absent from the injury report after participating in Thursday's practice. The 22-year-old has averaged 9.6 points and 8.0 rebounds in 24.4 minutes across his past five games.

Bagley (hand) participated in practice Thursday, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Bagley exited Wednesday's win over the Lakers with a hand injury and underwent an X-ray that came back negative. Coach Alvin Gentry is hopeful that the 22-year-old will be available Friday against the Rockets, and his participation in practice is certainly encouraging.

Bagley is being evaluated for a hand injury after leaving late during Wednesday's 125-116 win over the Lakers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley played well prior to the injury and finished with 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal in 30 minutes. The specifics of the injury remain unclear, so the 22-year-old should be considered questionable for Friday's matchup with the Rockets until his status is updated.

Bagley contributed four points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 122-114 loss to Los Angeles.

The Kings have lacked consistency inside due to Richaun Holmes' (COVID-19 Protocols) string of absences, but Bagley's five consecutive starts have definitely helped to prop up the frontcourt. While the former first-round pick's shot volume has been low, his rebound totals have been relatively steady.

Bagley logged nine points (3-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 10 rebounds and one assist across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 117-111 win over the Thunder.

Bagley started for a second-straight game, and it will be interesting to see if this trend continues. The Kings have used Chimezie Metu extensively at the four, but a healthy Bagley may be the long-term answer. The former first-round pick is a more versatile scorer and can stretch the floor more effectively than Metu.

Bagley will start Tuesday's matchup against the Thunder, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley will make his second start of the season in his second game back from protocols. In the five games that he's seen 20-plus minutes this season, he's averaged 11.8 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists.

Bagley (COVID-19 health and safety protocols) played 10 minutes off the bench and finished with three points (1-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in Sunday's 127-102 loss to the Grizzlies.

Bagley was one of four Kings players who returned to action after exiting the health and safety protocols along with De'Aaron Fox, Terence Davis and Louis King. After playing 20-plus minutes in four of his prior five appearances before entering the protocols, the fourth-year big man was eased back into the rotation with a light workload. Sacramento is now at full strength in the frontcourt sans Alex Len (health and safety protocols), so Bagley may not see his role grow much if the Kings are content with Chimezie Metu as their starting power forward.

Bagley will return for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.

Bagley has cleared the league's COVID-19 protocols ahead of Sunday's game and will be available for the first time since Dec. 13. Interim head coach Alvin Gentry said that although conditioning will be a struggle, Bagley will not be on any sort of minutes restriction in his return. The 22-year-old has averaged 8.1 points and 6.7 rebounds in 19.6 minutes per game this season.

Bagley (COVID-19 protocols) is expected to play Sunday against the Grizzlies, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley has been in protocols and last played Dec. 13. He's averaging 24.0 minutes across his past seven performances with averages of 10.9 points and 8.0 rebounds.

Bagley has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Wizards due to the league's health and safety protocols.

Bagley posted a double-double off the bench in Monday's loss to the Raptors, but he now joins a lengthy list of players around the league sidelined due to the NBA's COVID-19 protocols. It's not yet clear when Bagley will be able to return, but Harrison Barnes and Maurice Harkless should see additional run in his absence.

Bagley ended Monday's 124-101 loss to the Raptors with 12 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds and one block over 26 minutes.

After starting Saturday's game at Cleveland, Bagley was moved back to the bench as the Kings started Chimezie Metu at power forward. Nonetheless, Bagley notched his third double-double in five games, adding credence to the notion that, when the minutes are there, he can be a productive scorer and rebounder who chips in some threes and, occasionally, defensive stats. For now, Bagley is still in wait-and-see territory in many leagues, but if he's traded before February's deadline, he could step into a more consistent, fantasy-friendly role with another team.

Bagley will come off the bench Monday against the Raptors, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley received his first start of the season Saturday versus Cleveland, but he'll return to the bench after putting up seven points (3-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-3 FT), seven rebounds and one block in 22 minutes. Chimezie Metu will enter the lineup in his place.

Bagley will start Saturday's matchup against the Cavaliers, Spencer Davies of BasketballNews.com reports.

Bagley will get the nod over Terence Davis as the Kings face the supersized Cavaliers frontline, and it will mark Bagley's first start of the season after he began the year collecting DNP-CDs. Over his past six appearances, Bagley has averaged 11.2 points, 7.7 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 23.2 minutes.

Bagley amassed 15 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists and one block across 27 minutes during Friday's 124-123 loss to the Hornets.

Bagley has appeared in each of the last three contests following a two-game absence due to an illness. The 22-year-old shot 58.3 percent from the field in Friday's narrow loss and posted his highest scoring total of the season. He's been quite productive since returning to the court and now has two double-doubles in his last three appearances.

Bagley totaled 12 points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT) and 11 rebounds in 20 minutes during Saturday's 104-99 win over Los Angeles.

Bagley missed each of the Kings' previous two contests due to an illness, but he looked rejuvenated in his 20 minutes of court time Saturday. The big man finished with his first double-double -- and first double-digit rebounding total -- of the season while falling one point shy of his campaign-best scoring mark. Bagley has made his way out of the team's doghouse since Alvin Gentry took over as head coach, but he'll need to string together multiple games with this sort of production before he reemerges on the fantasy radar.

Bagley (illness) is no longer on the injury report for Saturday's game against the Clippers.

It appears as though Bagley will return to the court following a two-game absence due to an illness. Across his last four appearances, he's averaged 8.0 points and 6.0 rebounds in 21.3 minutes per game.

Bagley (illness) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Clippers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

An illness has kept Bagley out over the past two games, but he could return after practicing Friday. Over his past seven appearances, he's averaged 6.4 points and 5.4 rebounds in 18.7 minutes.

Bagley (illness) is out Wednesday against the Clippers.

Bagley will be out a second straight game due to an illness. Harrison Barnes (foot) also remains out, and Maurice Harkless (knee) is questionable.

Bagley is out Tuesday against the Lakers due to an illness, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.

Bagley has entered the rotation lately, but that development will be on hold Tuesday as he deals with an illness. In his absence, Jahmi'us Ramsey, Chimezie Metu and Terence Davis could see more minutes.

Bagley closed with 13 points (5-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and four assists in 35 minutes during Friday's 141-137 3OT win over Los Angeles.

Bagley has returned to the rotation since the Kings ousted Luke Walton, and Friday easily marked his season high in minutes as the game took three overtime periods to settle. Bagley was also helped by the absences of Richaun Holmes (eye) and Harrison Barnes (foot), but he'd played 19 and 12 minutes, respectively, in the previous two games, so interim coach Alvin Gentry appears to be giving him a chance. Given Bagley's pedigree, he's worth keeping an eye on in season-long leagues, but for now he hasn't shown enough to warrant starting consideration in most formats.

Bagley notched four points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-5 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 17 minutes during Friday's 108-89 loss to Toronto.

Bagley was in the rotation once again Friday, notching 17 minutes in what was an uninspiring performance. It's been a dreadful season for Bagley, both from a reality and a fantasy perspective. It is clear the Kings do not view him as a key part of their future, and yet they are hesitant to trade him away. For now, it appears this is what we are going to get from him on a nightly basis. Based on what we have seen, those in 12-team leagues can look the other way.

Bagley saw 10 minutes of action off the bench in Friday's loss to the Jazz, finishing with two points (1-2 FG), four rebounds and one turnover.

Bagley was not in the Kings' rotation on Opening Night, but with Moe Harkless (hip) sidelined Friday, he was pressed into limited action off the bench. The situation is difficult to read in the early going, but it looks as though Bagley could be on the outside looking in when the Kings are at full strength, as it's possible the No. 2 overall pick in 2018 could seek a trade at some point.

Bagley's representation at Excel Sports released a statement Tuesday acknowledging that the Kings have informed the big man he won't be included in the rotation for Wednesday's season opener at Portland. "It's clear [the Kings] have no plans for him in the future, and yet, passed on potential deals," Bagley's agent, Jeff Schwartz, wrote. "Instead, they chose to bring him back but not play him."

The fact that Bagley is not in the rotation is a blow to fantasy managers that took a chance on him with a late pick in redraft leagues. He's certainly an early drop candidate, though there's a chance he could find a role if traded elsewhere.

Bagley (knee) practiced Saturday, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley has been dealing with right knee soreness, which limited him to just two preseason appearances where he averaged 12.0 points and 4.5 rebounds in 20.5 minutes. Considering he practiced Wednesday and Saturday, it seems safe to assume he'll be ready for the opener.

Bagley (knee) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's preseason game against the Lakers.

Bagley was able to go through practice Wednesday, but he'll miss a second straight preseason game as he continues to deal with soreness in his right knee. Thursday marks the Kings' final preseason game, so Bagley's status will be one to keep an eye on as Wednesday's regular-season opener at Portland approaches.

Bagley (knee) is questionable for Thursday's preseason game against the Lakers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley's knee is still bothering him and his status for the preseason finale will likely be a game time decision. If he is unable to go Thursday, his sights will be set to the King's regular season opener next Wednesday at Portland.

Bagley (knee) participated in Wednesday's practice, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley was sidelined for Monday's preseason contest with a sore right knee, but he appears to be progressing well. The 6-foot-11 forward will have one more chance to suit up in the preseason -- Thursday Oct. 14 -- before the Kings' regular season opener on Oct. 20.

Bagley (sore knees) missed practice Friday, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

The 6-foot-11 big has played 20 minutes in each of the Kings first two preseason contests, but was held out of practice Friday due to sore knees. However, Anderson reports that Walton wouldn't call it an injury, so it seems that the team is just proceeding with caution with their soon to be fourth-year-pro. Sacramento's next preseason contest comes Monday against Portland.

Bagley will come off the bench in Wednesday's preseason game against the Clippers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley started Monday's exhibition opener but will come off the bench Wednesday. Maurice Harkless will take his place in the starting five.

Bagley said Monday that he feels "fine" after missing the Kings' final four games of the season due to a sore right groin, Jason Jones of The Athletic reports.

Fortunately for Bagley, the groin issue is mild in comparison to the numerous other injuries that have contributed to derailing his development over his first three seasons in the NBA. Bagley looks like he'll be in store for a normal offseason, but his long-term future in Sacramento appears murky. With career averages of 14.5 points and 7.5 rebounds per game across 118 appearances, Bagley has often been a double-double threat when he's been able to play, but he hasn't been an especially efficient shooter (55.3 true shooting percentage) and has offered little in the peripheral categories (1.4 assists, 1.1 blocks, 0.8 three-pointers and 0.7 steals per game). Frontcourt mate Richaun Holmes is set to become a free agent this offseason, and if Sacramento can't retain him, Bagley could shift over from power forward to center, which may be a more natural fit for the 22-year-old's skill set.

Bagley (groin) won't play in Sunday's game against Utah, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley will conclude the season missing the last four games with a right groin injury. Throughout 43 games played this season, Bagley averaged 14.1 points and 7.4 rebounds. Chimezie Metu should once again see an increased role Sunday.

Bagley (groin) will remain out Friday against Memphis.

Bagley will miss a third straight game with right groin soreness. Chimezie Metu will make his third straight start and is expected to see an increased role once again against the Grizzlies.

Bagley (groin) is doubtful for Friday's game Grizzlies.

It would be surprising if Bagley played. If he's out as expected, his last chance to play arrives Sunday against the Jazz.

Bagley (groin) will not play Thursday against Memphis, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Bagley will miss his second game in a row as expected due to soreness in his groin. Chimezie Metu should once again see an increased workload Thursday.

Bagley (groin) is doubtful for Thursday's matchup against the Grizzlies.

Bagley is expected to miss a second consecutive contest due to right groin soreness. Chimezie Metu figures to draw another start at power forward.

Bagley (leg) is out Tuesday against the Thunder, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

As expected, Bagley will be sidelined Tuesday after making six straight appearances. In his absence, Chimezie Metu, Maurice Harkless and Terence Davis are candidates to see more minutes.

Bagley is doubtful for Tuesday's contest against the Thunder due to a leg injury, Jason Jones of The Athletic reports.

If Bagley sits out, there's a good chance Chimezie Metu will get the nod at power forward. Harrison Barnes (groin) remains out as well.

Bagley registered 13 point (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block in 21 minutes during Sunday's 126-98 win over the Thunder.

The 22-year-old bounced back from Friday's four-point dud to post his fifth double-digit scoring effort over his last six games. Bagley has been hovering around top-100 fantasy value since returning from a fractured hand that cost him 23 games. The third-year center will look to end the season on a high note with a four-game slate this week starting Tuesday at home against the Thunder.

Bagley posted 31 points (13-22 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-8 FT) and 12 rebounds across 35 minutes in Wednesday's win over the Pacers.

This was Bagley's best performance of the season by a wide margin -- and it wouldn't be a stretch to call it one of the best games of his career. The big man reached the 25-point plateau just for the third time in the current campaign but also looked completely healthy and with no lingering issues of the injuries that have plagued him throughout his NBA career. It's only one game and it would be rushed to make assumptions based on just one outing, but this is the kind of long-term figures fantasy managers would still expect from a talented player like the Duke product.

Bagley had 13 points (5-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, an assist and a steal across 31 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Thunder.

Bagley started for the second straight game and once again scored in double figures, but he had a rough night from the floor and needed 15 shots just to put up 13 points. He's averaging 15.7 points and 6.7 boards per game in three contests since returning from injury, though those numbers should spike up considering he'll be in the starting lineup moving forward.

Bagley finished with 23 points (10-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Sunday's 111-99 victory over the Mavericks.

Bagley moved into the starting lineup against the Mavericks and came through with his best performance in recent memory. After another season cruelled by injury, Bagley has a nice opportunity to string some solid games together to close out the campaign. The Kings are down on troops and might as well let Bagley loose in the hope he can establish a decent floor. With the waiver wire paper-thin right now, Bagley makes sense as a speculative pickup.

Bagley will start Sunday's game against the Mavericks, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 in Sacramento reports.

Bagley made his long-awaited return from his latest injury Friday against the Lakers and saw 21 minutes of action off the bench, finishing with 11 points, four rebounds, two steals and one assist. He'll move back into the starting Sunday alongside Richaun Holmes, while Chimezie Metu sits out due to a back injury. Given that Bagley started every game in which he appeared before the injury, there's a good chance he could hold onto the job the rest of the way.

Bagley (hand) is available for Friday's game against the Lakers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley had been sidelined since March 15 due to a fractured left hand, but he was probable ahead of Friday's matchup. However, Bagley will come off the bench and have an undisclosed minutes restriction following his lengthy absence, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. Chimizie Metu could see a decreased workload with Bagley back in action.

Bagley (hand) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Lakers.

Bagley appears likely to return Friday after being sidelined since March 15 due to a fractured left hand. His potential return could cut into Chimezie Metu's workload. Across 37 games this season, Bagley has averaged 13.9 points, 7.4 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 0.9 triples per game.

Bagley (hand) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Jazz, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

As expected, Bagley isn't quite ready to return as he continues to work his way back from a fractured left hand. According to head coach Luke Walton, Bagley has progressed to 3-on-3 work and is making good progress, but he won't be available Wednesday. With Harrison Barnes (groin) also sidelined, Chimezie Metu and Hassan Whiteside could be in line for some extra minutes against the Jazz.

Bagley (hand) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

Bagley is on the verge of a return, but it likely won't come Wednesday. Being listed as doubtful rather than out is a good sign that he's making good progress. His next chance to play is Friday against the Lakers.

Sacramento head coach Luke Walton said Saturday that Bagley (hand) is "not close" to returning to game action, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports. "He looks good, and as far as you can tell, he's been working out and running," Walton said of Bagley. "Our strength team pushed him pretty hard on the side court [Saturday] at practice, and we were very impressed with where he was from a conditioning standpoint, but no timeline on when he'll start to play again and clearly we're not going to rush him b

After fracturing the fourth metacarpal in his left hand March 15, Bagley was away from the team for a few weeks before rejoining the Kings in Phoenix on Thursday. Though he's now taking part in on-court work, Bagley still looks like he'll need additional time to get back up to full speed, making it questionable as to whether he'll be available at any point during the remaining four weeks of the regular season. Maurice Harkless and Harrison Barnes should continue to handle most of the minutes at power forward while Bagley is sidelined.

Bagley (hand) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

Though Bagley joined the Kings for their two-game road trip to Phoenix and Dallas, he won't end up being available for either contest. The Kings haven't provided many updates regarding where exactly Bagley stands in his recovery from a fractured left hand, an injury he sustained March 15. He'll most likely miss additional time beyond Sunday.

Bagley is completing his rehab program for his fractured left hand away from the Kings, but he's made good progress since suffering the injury March 15, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley is scheduled to be re-evaluated in four weeks, so the Kings should have another update on the big man's condition by the middle of April. While Bagley is sidelined, Harrison Barnes is expected to remain the Kings' starting power forward, with the newly-acquired Maurice Harkless serving as his primary backup.

Bagley (hand) will not require surgery and will be re-evaluated in four weeks, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.

The good news for Bagley is that he will not need surgery on his fractured left hand, but he is still going to miss about a month at minimum, at which point the team will provide another update. With Sacramento not in the playoff picture, there won't be tons of incentive to rush Bagley back to close out the season. Hassan Whiteside and Nemanja Bjelica could see increased roles while Bagley remains sidelined.

Bagley suffered a fractured left hand in Monday's matchup with the Hornets, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley was forced out of Monday's game after producing 12 points (6-9 FG, 0-2 3PT), three rebounds and one block across 16 minutes. Subsequent X-rays confirmed he sustained a fracture of the fourth metacarpal in his shooting hand. He will now need to undergo further medical evaluations, so there is no timeline for how long he will be sidelined. The primary beneficiary of his presumed absence going forward will presumably be Nemanja Bjelica.

Bagley has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Hornets due to a left hand injury, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bagley appeared to be bothered by a left hand issue early in Monday's game and went to the locker room in the second quarter. He was ruled out for the remainder of the contest at halftime, and it's not yet clear whether the injury will impact his availability for Wednesday's game against the Wizards. Prior to his departure, Bagley recorded 12 points (6-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one block over 16 minutes.

Bagley has scored in double-figures in 13 straight contests, averaging 16.8 points per game on 54.3 percent shooting during that stretch.

For the most part, Bagley remains just a points/rebounds contributor in fantasy leagues, as he's averaging just 1.1 assists and 1.0 combined blocks and steals over that 13-game sample. He's notched four double-doubles during that span, though the most recent of those came back on Feb. 28 against Charlotte. In two post-All-Star-break contests, Bagley is averaging 11.5 points, 7.0 boards, 1.0 assist and 1.0 block in 23.5 minutes.

Bagley collected 24 points (11-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two steals and a blocked shot across 35 minutes in Sunday's loss to Charlotte.

Bagley continued his recent run of strong play, notching his ninth straight game with double figures in the scoring column. Sunday's performance was his fourth double-double during that span and his 10th overall this season. Bagley is enjoying a solid campaign with per-game averages of 14.1 points and 7.6 boards, though his 54.1 free-throw percentage dings his overall fantasy appeal.

Bagley scored 19 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT) with five rebounds and one steal in the Kings' 140-121 loss to the Knicks on Thursday.

Bagley had a great first half, scoring 16 points and grabbing four rebounds, but couldn't follow it up in the second as he was held to just three points and two shot attempts. The forward has been playing well of late, averaging 17.8 points and 8.2 rebounds over his last six games. Bagley played only 22 minutes because the Kings didn't have much of a chance to come back in the fourth, but with Jabari Parker (COVID-19 protocols) and Hassan Whiteside (COVID-19 protocols) both out of the lineup, Bagley should see some more action in upcoming games.

Bagley recorded 12 points (5-10 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 10 rebounds and two blocks in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 127-118 loss to the Nets.

Tuesday marked Bagley's third double-double in four games. The forward has picked up his work on the glass lately. Over his past seven appearances, he's averaged 8.6 rebounds and hasn't dipped below six in a single game during this stretch. In his previous five games, he had averaged just 4.2 boards.

Bagley recorded 12 points (5-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block during Sacramento's 128-115 loss to Milwaukee on Sunday.

Bagley had a quieter game Sunday after three straight games of at least 19 points. The Kings welcomed back Richaun Holmes (knee) to the frontcourt after a three game absence, but his presence didn't affect Bagley's recent minutes and usage. The forward has stayed healthy this year, which was a big question mark coming into the season, as he has only missed two games due to a sore calf. The former second overall pick has shown glimpses of dominance during his three years in the NBA, but has lacked the consistency necessary to take his game to the next level. Bagley is averaging 13.5 points and 7.6 rebounds per game this season and shooting a career-high 39.2 percent from three.

Bagley produced 26 points (10-19 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals across 35 minutes in Saturday's 122-114 loss to the Bulls.

Bagley absorbed output usually reserved for Harrison Barnes and Richaun Holmes and put together an excellent total in the loss. Hasan Whiteside will continue to push the frontcourt for playing time, but Bagley has earned the starting role in his third season. His job is safe if he can stay off the injury report.

Bagley totaled 19 points (7-12 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), 10 rebounds and two assists in Thursday's 118-110 loss to the Heat.

As expected, Bagley turned in an efficient number with Richaun Holmes sidelined. In his third season with the Kings, Bagley has blossomed into an every-day starter who is finally realizing his potential after an injury-riddled sophomore season. Injuries are still an issue for him, as his recent calf injury is currently keeping him on a minute restriction.

Bagley will remain on a minutes limit for Thursday's game against the Heat, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley will still be on a minutes limit after he played 21 minutes during Tuesday's loss to Brooklyn in a return from a calf injury. The 21-year-old center will likely start again with Richaun Holmes (knee) unlikely to play, so he may see a slight uptick in minutes in his second game back from injury.

Bagley scored 19 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT) while adding seven rebounds and a block in only 21 minutes during Monday's 136-125 loss to the Nets.

After missing the prior two games with a calf injury, Bagley returned to the court and put together his best scoring performance in nearly a month. The 21-year-old has had a strange season so far -- his free-throw percentage (51.4%) has cratered, while he's worked hard to become a reliable three-point shooter (37.1%) -- but Bagley still has time to put all the pieces together on the offensive end.

Bagley (calf) is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Brooklyn, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bagley was listed as questionable due to a calf injury, but he's been cleared to take the court Monday. The Kings will keep him on a minutes restriction after missing the last two contests, per Malika Andrews of ESPN.com.

The Kings view Bagley (calf) as day-to-day and will re-evaluate him early Monday before determining his status ahead of the team's game later in the day against the Nets, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Since the Kings are playing the second half of a back-to-back set Monday, an official update on Bagley's status versus the Nets may not be available until shortly before the 10 p.m. ET tipoff. Bagley has missed two straight games with a sore left calf, which has allowed Nemanja Bjelica and Hassan Whiteside to pick up some extra minutes in the frontcourt.

Bagley (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bagley will miss a second straight game due to left calf tightness. DaQuan Jeffries will start alongside Harrison Barnes against Memphis, while Nemanja Bjelica and Glenn Robinson could also see increased run for the Kings. It's not yet clear whether Bagley could return Monday against Brooklyn.

Bagley (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Grizzlies.

Bagley missed Friday's game due to left calf soreness, and he could sit out again Sunday. If he does, Nemanja Bjelica and Glenn Robinson would likely see expanded roles once more.

Bagley (calf) is a late scratch for Friday's game against the Magic, Kayte Christensen of NBC Sports California reports.

It was first reported that Bagley would be available for Friday's tilt, but he was subsequently left absent from the team's announced starting lineup. The team has since ruled him out. He will be replaced in the starting lineup by Glenn Robinson.

Bagley isn't starting Friday's game against Orlando.

Bagley will be active Friday after dealing with left calf soreness during the week, but he won't be in the starting lineup against Orlando. Glenn Robinson will start in his place for Friday's game.

Bagley (calf) is active for Friday's game against the Magic, Philip Rossman-Reich of OrlandoMagicDaily.com reports.

Bagley was questionable due to left calf soreness ahead of Friday's matchup, but he'll be able to play against the Magic. He'll likely claim his usual spot in the starting five Friday.

Bagley is questionable for Friday's game against the Magic due to left calf soreness.

Bagley is a late addition to the injury report. If he ends up being a late scratch, it would open up more opportunities for Glenn Robinson, Harrison Barnes and Nemanja Bjelica.

Bagley scored 17 points (6-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-5 Ft) and grabbed six rebounds in Tuesday's loss to the 76ers.

Bagley ranked third on the Kings in scoring in the contest, notching his highest point total since Jan. 30. He also logged 29 minutes of playing time, the most he has accumulated in nearly three weeks. While Bagley has started every game for the Kings so far this season, his per-game averages of 12.5 points, 7.4 rebounds and 0.5 blocks across 25.1 minutes make him only a fringe fantasy asset.

Bagley posted nine points (4-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt), 10 rebounds and one assist over 21 minutes in Sunday's 113-110 win over the Clippers.

Bagley struggled in Saturday's win over the Nuggets, but he was far more effective against the Clippers. He came within one point of recording his first double-double since Jan. 27, and he was one of three starters to have at least 10 rebounds in the win. Bagley is now averaging 9.6 points and 5.2 rebounds over 21.2 minutes per game across the past five contests.

Bagley was ejected from Monday's game in the third quarter after picking up his second technical foul, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley picked up a technical in the first half, and he was forced to hit the showers after being hit with his second with over 10 minutes remaining in the third quarter. He put up 10 points (5-12 FGG, 0-2 3PT, 0-2 FT) and added four rebounds and an assist in 22 minutes.

Bagley posted 17 points (7-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt), four rebounds, two steals and an assist across 26 minutes in Saturday's loss against the Heat.

Bagley was coming off four straight games with 16 or fewer points, but he showed elite efficiency in this one -- he only missed one of his shots en route to his fifth-best scoring output of the campaign. Bagley has struggled with consistency this season but has managed to stay healthy, and that's a big plus for a player that played just 75 games during his first two seasons in The Association. He is averaging 13.8 points per game in 14 appearances this month.

Bagley went for 16 points (7-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-5 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one steal in just 22 minutes during the Kings' 121-107 Tuesday over the Magic.

Bagley has now recorded back-to-back double-doubles for the first time since the first two games of the season. It was a balanced effort for the Kings Tuesday night as every starter recorded at least 16 points. Bagley has now grabbed double-digit rebounds in three of his last four games as he is pulling down a career-best 8.7 boards this season.

Bagley (wrist) will play and start in Friday's game against the Knicks, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

No surprise here, as Bagley was considered probable prior to the game. Barring any setbacks, look for the young big man to take on his usual role.

Bagley (wrist) is probable for Friday's game against the Knicks, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley has appeared on the injury report lately due to a sore left wrist, but he's yet to miss any time so far this season. It doesn't appear that will change for Friday's contest. Bagley is coming off 10 points and eight boards in Wednesday's loss to the Clippers.

Bagley (wrist) will play and start in Wednesday's game against the Clippers, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

As expected, Bagley, who's been bother by a wrist injury, is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup. This will be the 15th straight start for the forward this season. He's averaging 13.7 points and 7.8 rebounds.

Bagley is probable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers with a sore left wrist.

The 21-year-old has been playing through the sore wrist lately and is expected to do so again Wednesday. Bagley has combined for 46 points, 15 rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 67 minutes over the past two games, so it hasn't had a significant affect on his performance.

Bagley finished with 26 points (11-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 boards, one block and one steal in 36 minutes of a 128-123 loss to New Orleans on Sunday.

Bagley turned in his fourth double-double of the season in his team's loss, scoring a season high in points in the contest. It was the first time this year that the Kings lost a game where he recorded a double-double. He'll face the Clippers on Wednesday.

Bagley (wrist) is active for Sunday's game against the Pelicans, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley was dealing with left wrist soreness that he apparently sustained Friday against the Clippers, but he'll be available for Sunday's contest. He should be in the starting five once again during the matchup against New Orleans.

Bagley is questionable for Sunday's game against the Pelicans with left wrist soreness.

The 21-year-old apparently suffered the injury during Friday's loss to the Clippers when he had 20 points (8-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block in 31 minutes. Nemanja Bjelica could be more involved if Bagley is unable to play Sudnay.

Bagley had 20 points (8-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block in Friday's 138-100 loss to the Clippers.

Across 13 games this season, Bagley led the Kings in points only twice. He was expected to elevate his scoring average but is not even among Sacramento's top four scorers. Bagley has not had this problem at home though, averaging 14.7 points across nine games.

Bagley finished with just eight points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 23 minutes during Monday's 127-122 victory over the Pacers.

The playing time certainly tells a story in this one. Bagley spent just 23 minutes on the floor despite no foul issues. He is really struggling at the moment and the two blocks were the only saving grace here. I don't think he is a player you need to attach yourself to in standard formats, although there is a semblance of upside there and so you could give him another game or two.

Bagley scored 15 points (5-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT) and collected eight rebounds over 24 minutes in a blowout loss to Portland on Saturday.

Bagley was one of many Kings to struggle from the field in the loss, but he was nonetheless able to pace the team in scoring and tie for the lead in rebounding in the contest. The 2018 second-overall draft pick is averaging 12.7 points and a career-high 8.1 boards through 10 games this season.

Bagley contributed 21 points (8-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, two steals and two blocks in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 128-124 victory over Chicago.

Bagley finally got things going in the right direction after a string of disappointing performances. This was easily his best game of the season and he earns himself a reprieve, for now. There is a chance Bagley was dropped in your league and if that is the case, he is worth adding to see if he can build off this performance.

Bagley contributed five points (2-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-3 FT) and nine rebounds in 24 minutes Monday in the Kings' 137-106 loss to the Warriors.

While he's thus far been able to avoid the health issues that plagued him through his first two seasons in the NBA, Bagley doesn't appear to be showing any signs that a third-year breakout is in the cards. Even with frontcourt mate Richaun Holmes limited by foul trouble for most of the night, Bagley didn't step up to pick up the slack, shooting under 50 percent from the field for the third straight game while the Kings went minus-27 during his time on the court. Bagley has at least been a decent source of boards (8.1 per game) this season, but his lagging production in nearly every other category may make it difficult to justify holding him in most 12-team leagues.

Bagley only scored four points (1-9 FG, 2-2 FT) while adding eight rebounds, an assist and a block across 26 minutes in Thursday's loss against the Rockets.

Bagley scored in double digits in each of his first four games of the season, but he struggled massively with his shot and was unable to crack the five-point plateau for the fourth time in his NBA career -- he hadn't done it since a Feb. 8 win over the Heat in 2019. Bagley should still be treated as one of Sacramento's top offensive threats, though, and he will attempt to bounce back Saturday when facing the Rockets again.

Bagley totaled 13 points (5-14 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds and a blocked shot across 27 minutes Wednesday in the Kings' 124-122 win over the Nuggets.

Bagley had a good chance to come away with a double-double in the season opener, but he fell just short of that benchmark after fouling out of the contest. The Kings' top two centers, Richaun Holmes and Hassan Whiteside, also battled foul trouble during the game, allowing Bagley to see some time at the position. Bagley is still expected to see the bulk of his minutes at power forward in his third professional season.

Bagley (not injury related) will start at power forward but be limited to 15 minutes during Tuesday's preseason game against the Warriors, Matt George of Sports 1140 KHTK Sacramento reports.

The 21-year-old got a late start to training camp after testing positive for coronavirus, but he's cleared the league protocols and is ready to play Tuesday. Bagley should continue ramping up his workload ahead of the Dec. 23 season opener at Denver.

Bagley (not injury related) is finishing up COVID-19 protocol and is expected to be back on the court sometime next week, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

With this news, Bagley won't be playing in Sunday's preseason game against the Trail Blazers, with his first opportunity to take the court being Tuesday against the Warriors.

Bagley is unlikely to play in Friday's preseason opener against the Trail Blazers due to COVID-19 protocol, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley contracted coronavirus before training camp started but now reportedly feels great. Still, due to protocols, he likely won't be available for the preseason opener. We should expect him to be ready for the start of the regular season, however.

The Kings have picked up the fourth-year option on Bagley's contract, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley, the Kings' former No. 2 overall pick, only played in 13 games last season and only 75 overall through his first two due to injuries. However, he has been productive when his health has been up to par to the tune of 14.8 points, 7.6 rebounds and 0.9 blocks per game. The big man has seemingly put his past foot and thumb injuries behind him, as coach Luke Walton indicated earlier in the week that he will be Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee to start the season.

Kings coach Luke Walton said Tuesday that he expects Bagley (foot) to be "ready to go" when the regular season begins, Jason Anderson of the Sacramento Bee reports.

The Kings have released very little information regarding Bagley's condition after a right foot sprain kept him out of play in the NBA bubble. Walton's comments are encouraging, however, with the regular season just three weeks away. Entering his third NBA season, Bagley is yet to justify his pedigree as the No. 2 overall pick in 2018, as he's played in just 75 contests over the last two seasons -- including only 13 in 2019-20. In 25.7 minutes per game a year ago, Bagley averaged 14.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 0.9 blocks.

Bagley (foot) will be out for the remainder of the 2019-20 season, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Bagley's foot injury will cost him the rest of his sophomore campaign. The results of his MRI have yet to be publicly revealed, but the diagnosis was apparently significant. He'll finish the season with averages of 14.2 points and 7.5 rebounds in 25.7 minutes across 13 appearances. Nemanja Bjelica and Harrison Barnes should continue to hold down the majority of minutes at forward for the remainder of the season.

Bagley was using crutches and wearing a walking boot on his right foot at Tuesday's practice, the Sacramento Bee reports.

The Kings are yet to issue an update on Bagley, who suffered the injury during practice over the weekend, but crutches and a walking boot are rarely a good sign. "The films have been sent out," Walton said of Bagley's MRI. "We're waiting to kind of get some more information back from that. Being in the bubble is always a little different. I don't know how the protocols work. We've got a lot going on, so I just trust in the process that's happening. When I get the information, I'll share it with you guys." For now, consider Bagley day-to-day and very much questionable for the start of seeding games on Jul. 31.

Bagley sustained a right foot injury during Sunday's practice and underwent an MRI, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reports.

It was a left foot issue kept Bagley sidelined for the majority of the regular season, but this is nonetheless a major concern for the young big man, who's played in just 75 games since going No. 2 overall in the 2018 NBA Draft. The results of the MRI are still pending, so consider Bagley day-to-day for the time being.

Bagley (foot) will likely come off the bench if he's available to play during the resumption of the season, Jason Jones of The Athletic reports.

While there isn't confirmation that Bagley will play again this season, Jones believes he'll come off the bench if he does suit up, noting "It would be a mistake to force Bagley back into the starting lineup and disrupt the chemistry of the group that was starting in March." A foot injury has disrupted Bagley's sophomore campaign, as he's played just 13 games.

Coach Luke Walton said in a conference call Wednesday that Bagley (foot) is "doing great" and "feeling much better," Jason Jones of The Athletic reports.

Bagley last saw game action Jan. 20 and didn't have a clear return timetable leading up to the shutdown of the NBA season in early March. The news from Walton is good but doesn't provide much clarity on when the 21-year-old is expected to be fully healthy.

Bagley (foot) continues to rehab his left mid-foot sprain and remains without a firm timetable, though he has not been ruled out for the season, Marc Spears of ESPN reports.

Bagley is going through what the team is calling his "reconditioning plan", which includes on-court drills, skill work and strength exercises. The Kings have not stated when Bagley might return, but there's still hope that the second-year big man will be able to get back on the floor before the end of the regular season. The No. 2 overall pick in 2018 has not played since Jan. 20, and he's only appeared in 13 games on the year.

Bagley (foot) will be re-evaluated in three weeks, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

At this point, it seems optimistic to hope that Bagley will return in mid-March as he continues to recover from mid-foot sprain. An updated timetable for a return may emerge as he hits various milestones in his recovery, but it's possible no concrete information gets out until his official re-evaluation. Nemanja Bjelica should continue handling heavy minutes as the Kings' starting power forward as a result.

Bagley said after Saturday's 122-102 win over the Spurs that he's "definitely going to try" and return to action this season, though he acknowledged the possibility that he'll be shut down if his left foot isn't 100 percent healthy, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

Bagley is currently sporting a walking boot to protect his sprained left foot, which he aggravated in late January in his fourth game back from an eight-game absence due to the same injury. Sacramento intends to take a more cautious approach with the second-year big man this time around, as he's already been ruled out through the All-Star break. The Kings intend to re-evaluate him later this month, but based on Bagley's own comments about the injury, it's looking rather unlikely that he'll be back in action until March at the earliest. Bagley's ongoing absence should continue to allow Nemanja Bjelica to handle heavy minutes as the Kings' starting power forward.

Bagley (foot) will be re-evaluated in three weeks, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bagley saw a foot specialist Thursday, who determined that his mid-foot sprain has been re-aggravated, per Ham. He'll be sidelined for at least the next three weeks as a result, pushing his return date back until late-February. Nemanja Bjelica will continue to see starts at power forward with Bagley on the mend.

Bagley (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Clippers, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

The 20-year-old will be sidelined for the fifth consecutive contest as he continues to battle left foot soreness. According to James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area, Bagley was still wearing a boot on his left foot after Wednesday's loss to the Clippers, which also leaves in doubt his availability for Saturday's matchup with the Lakers.

Bagley (foot) is out Wednesday against the Thunder.

Bagley will miss a fourth straight contest as he recovers from left foot soreness. His next opportunity to play arrives Thursday against the Clippers.

Bagley (foot) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Timberwolves.

It will be the third straight absence for Bagley, who continues to nurse a sore left foot. Harry Giles and Dewayne Dedmon should continue to pick up increased minutes in Bagley's place.

Bagley (foot) won't play Friday against Chicago.

Bagley was previously deemed doubtful due to left foot soreness, so this update isn't unexpected. His next chance to return to the court will come Monday in Minnesota.

Bagley (foot) is not expected to play Friday against the Bulls, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

It sounds like Bagley will miss a second straight game as he deals with some soreness in his left foot, which is the same foot that he sprained at the end of December and missed eight games as a result of. With Richaun Holmes unavailable due to a shoulder injury, Dewayne Dedmon would likely be in line for another start if Bagley is indeed ruled out.

Bagley will not play Wednesday against the Pistons due to left foot soreness.

Bagley missed eight games in December and January due to a sprained left foot, and he's apparently dealing with some residual soreness after playing 38 minutes in Monday's loss to the Heat. With Richaun Holmes (shoulder) also sidelined, Harry Giles is a candidate to see increased run Wednesday. Bagley's next chance to play comes Friday in Chicago.

Bagley went for 15 points (7-13 FG, 0-1 3PT, 1-1 FT) and 15 rebounds in Monday's loss to Miami.

It was the second double-double in three games for Bagley, who's now played at least 33 minutes in six straight games. He also added two assists and one steal in his 38 minutes Monday.

Bagley wasn't listed on Monday's injury report and is expected to play against Miami, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley, who was forced to exit Saturday's loss to the Jazz early after experiencing discomfort in his foot, appears to have avoided aggravating the issue that kept him out of eight games earlier this month. He'll presumably return to the same starting role that he's held for the past two games. In those two contests, Bagley's posted 29 points,14 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and a steal in 60 minutes of play.

Bagley exited Saturday's loss to the Jazz and had his left foot evaluated, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

The 20-year-old missed eight games due to a left foot sprain but returned to action earlier this week, and he appeared to aggravate the injury in the closing stages of Saturday's blowout loss. Bagley finished the game with 17 points (8-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks in 30 minutes. Per Anderson, coach Luke Walton didn't have any additional information after the game, leaving Bagley's status for Monday's game at Miami up in the air.

Bagley is in the starting lineup Wednesday against the Mavericks, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley will still face an unspecified minutes restriction in Wednesday's contest, but he'll end up making his fourth start of the season. Harry Giles will move to a bench role as a result.

Bagley will remain on a minutes restriction Wednesday against the Mavericks, Sean Cunningham of ABC 10 Sacramento reports.

The Kings will continue to monitor Bagley's workload in his second game back following an eight-game absence. He played 23 minutes in Monday's loss to the Magic, finishing with 18 points, six rebounds and two blocks.

Bagley III had 18 points (8-17 FG, 0-2 3PT, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and two blocks in 23 minutes off the bench during Monday's 114-112 loss against the Magic.

Bagley III returned from an eight-game absence and delivered a strong performance off the bench. The most important thing is that he showed no ill effects of his prior injury, and he should continue to come off the bench Wednesday at home against the Mavericks.

Bagley (foot) will play Monday against Orlando, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bagley has missed the last eight matchups dating back to Dec. 28 due to a hampering left foot sprain, but that streak appears destined to end Monday. The Duke product has only participated in nine games so far this season, averaging 13.7 points and 6.9 rebounds. Nemanja Bjelica may still remain the starter at the power-forward spot for the Kings although Bagley's return Monday may factor into Bjelica's minutes moving forward.

Bagley (foot) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Magic.

Coach Luke Walton said Sunday that he expects Bagley to play in Monday's game, and he now officially has a designation of questionable. Bagley has only appeared in nine games this season, so he could be limited even if he's able to return.

Coach Luke Walton expects Bagley (foot) to return Monday against the Magic, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

Bagley has missed the Kings' last eight contests but looks to be on the verge of a return. He is averaging 13.7 points and eight rebounds in his nine games this season.

Bagley (foot) will remain sidelined for Friday's game versus the Bucks, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bagley practiced fully Thursday and subsequently drew a questionable designation for Friday's contest. However, the Kings have opted to exercise caution with their prized big man and will keep him sidelined for another game. The absence will mark his eight straight game missed. His next chance to suit up will come Monday against the Magic.

Bagley (foot) is questionable for Friday's game against the Bucks.

Bagley was a full participant in Thursday's practice, though is availability remains up in the air for Friday's matchup. He's missed the last seven contests due to a left foot sprain.

Bagley (foot) went through a full practice Thursday, James Ham of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

It's still unclear if Bagley will be cleared to make his return Friday night, but this is an encouraging sign for the young big man, who hasn't played since Dec. 26. Prior to this latest injury, Bagley had moved back into the starting lineup.

Bagley has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Timberwolves after suffering a left foot injury.

Bagley left Thursday's matchup during the third quarter, and the issue is significant enough to keep him out of the remainder of the game. Nemanja Bjelica and Trevor Ariza could see extra run in Bagley's absence.
