This past weekend was nuts and Saturday was the most off-the-rails day of the season. For today’s 11-game slate, we’re generally in a pretty good spot. The 1:30 injury report only had Devin Vassell getting upgraded to available (for Monday games). Let’s run through the action today and the injuries that’ll affect the slate.

Injury Report: Bradley Beal (Q, hip), Doug McDermott (Q, ankle)
The big one here is Bradley Beal getting the Q tag. Normally, I wouldn’t be very concerned with a guy who just had a bad fall a couple days ago, but this is a B2B for the struggling Wizards. It still sounds like he’s going to be out there, though. If not, coach Scott Brooks may turn to Jerome Robinson again after going to him to close in the last game because he said they needed offense. Of course, you’d be locking Russell Westbrook without Beal while Deni Avdija would also likely get a few more shots.
If Doug McDermott can’t go, that would up Jeremy Lamb a bit while Goga Bitadze may be shifting into the mix to back up Myles Turner.
