Marcus Smart has been ruled out for Friday’s game against Orlando due to managing a right index finger partial extensor hood tear, per the latest update, missing the first half of Washington’s back-to-back. (NBA Injury Report)
Fantasy Impact:
Smart’s absence opens extra minutes for Bub Carrington against the Magic, with his next shot to play coming Saturday against the Knicks—his defensive grit and playmaking stay sidelined. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can look to Carrington for a short-term boost while Smart sits out this leg.
