Riley continues a steady stretch on the offensive end of the floor, finishing with 14 or more points in each of his last five games. The 20-year-old continues to offer fantasy managers a late-season option in lineups as one of the more impactful options in the Washington lineup of late, averaging 10.0 points in 21.3 minutes per game to go along with a 19.1% usage rate so far this season.

Riley has now scored at least 20 points five times in March, and Monday was another — the only Wizard to reach that mark in the loss to the Lakers with 20 points (8-of-19 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, and one steal.

The shooting required significant volume to get there, and the contribution beyond scoring was minimal, but five 20-point games in a single month is a number worth paying attention to.

Will Riley led Washington with 14 points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3PT, 5-5 FT) on Sunday as the Wizards fell to Portland, 123-88.

Riley has reached double figures in scoring in four straight games and in 11 of his 15 games this month. He has come off the bench in each of the last two games, but is still averaging 18.0 points in those contests. The rookie averaged 7.0 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists prior to the All-Star break, but is averaging 14.5 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 2.6 assists since. The 21st overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, Riley looks like he will be an important part of the rebuild in Washington.

Will Riley scored 19 points (6-14 FG, 1-4 3PT, 6-8 FT) to go along with 10 rebounds and five assists in the Wizards 133-110 win over the Jazz.

Fantasy Impact

Riley logged his second double-double of the season. He was limited to just 22 minutes on the court, but should continue to see plenty of opportunity the rest of the season.

Will Riley is available for Saturday’s game against the Thunder.

Riley is good to go after being listed as questionable. He should remain in his usual role.
