Availability
Bub Carrington scored just three points (1-6 FG, 1-2 3PT, 0-0 FT) but did grab a season-high 10 rebounds and dish out a team-high seven assists in Washington's loss to Atlanta on Tuesday night.
Fantasy Impact
Carrington has now failed to score at least 10 points in four of his last five games and he is shooting just 15-of-47 (31.9%) from the field during that stretch. The young point guard is averaging 9.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in 10 games this month.
Bub Carrington scored 15 points (5-11 FG, 4-8 3PT, 1-1 FT), grabbed three rebounds, and handed out six assists in the Wizards' loss to the Lakers on Friday night.
Fantasy Impact
Carrington has now reached double figures in scoring in eight straight games and is averaging 13.5 points, 3.1 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.5 steals during the stretch. However, he is averaging 3.8 turnovers and, while an improvement on his season average, is shooting 43.0% from the field.
Bub Carrington scored 13 points (4-14 FG, 3-13 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go with three steals and two blocks in Thursday's 107-97 loss to the Denver Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact
Carrington didn't play great on Thursday, managing to score only 13 points on poor shooting splits. He also committed five turnovers over the course of the day, which further hurt his fantasy total. He will continue to be a good but not great fantasy option for the foreseeable future.
Carrington returned to Washington's starting lineup Friday and finished with 11 points on 3-of-4 shooting while adding nine assists, three three-pointers, two rebounds and one steal against the Kings. With Bilal Coulibaly (back) and Khris Middleton (knee) both sidelined, he reclaimed a starting role. The nine assists left him one short of recording his first double-double of the season, rebounding from Wednesday's 1-of-11 shooting performance in a loss.
Fantasy Impact
Saturday's game in Denver could see Carrington start again depending on the availability of Coulibaly and Middleton. His efficient shooting Friday marked a significant improvement from his struggles earlier in the week.
Bub Carrington scored 18 points (5-11 FG, 5-10 3P, 3-3 FT) with three rebounds and seven assists in the Wizards' 131-110 loss to the Sixers on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Carrington led the Wizards in threes made and was the most effective shooter for them, but his downfall was that he had more turnovers than made baskets. He's spent the previous three games below 10 points, showing his floor was near rock bottom if it weren't for his Reb+Ast helping him out. He's shown upside, but is tough to trust.
