Dallas Mavericks forward Khris Middleton (illness) won't suit up on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was a very late addition to the injury report due to illness. After a couple of big performances early in his Mavericks career, Middleton has posted fairly underwhelming averages of 11.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in 22.3 minutes with the team. Fellow veteran Klay Thompson may log more action on Friday due to his absence.

Dallas Mavericks forward Khris Middleton (shoulder) will play Thursday against Sacramento after entering the night with a shoulder stinger. The veteran wing has averaged 14.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.2 three-pointers in 23.0 minutes across his last five games, but he remains a volatile fantasy option given fluctuating minutes and workload management risk. With Dallas shorthanded in the frontcourt, Middleton should see steady involvement, though his availability could trim opportunities for Klay Thompson and Caleb Martin on the wing. Middleton is more of a matchup-based play in standard leagues, while deeper formats can justify holding for scoring and triples.

Dallas Mavericks forward Khris Middleton (shoulder) didn't play in the second half of Tuesday's victory over the Brooklyn Nets. After colliding with Nets center Nicolas Claxton in the second quarter, Middleton was ruled out for the second half with a right shoulder stinger. The veteran forward finished with six points, five rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 12 minutes. It was an unfortunate blow for Middleton, who has been playing well lately. He entered Tuesday's game averaging 16.0 points and 4.8 rebounds across his last four appearances. Caleb Martin started the second half in Middleton's place but made little impact, tallying three points, five rebounds, two assists, and one steal.

34-year-old small forward Khris Middleton is being dealt to the Dallas Mavericks as part of the larger Anthony Davis trade, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. Now in the twilight of his career, Middleton won't be much more than a rotational piece behind Cooper Flagg, P.J. Washington, and Naji Marshall on his new team. Middleton averaged 10.3 points on 33% shooting from three-point land in 34 games (all starts) for the Wizards this season. AJ Johnson, Malaki Branham, Marvin Bagley III, two first-round picks, and three second-rounders will also be sent to Dallas for Davis, ... [More]

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) won't play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday. Washington will be in action for a second consecutive night, and it's not surprising that Middleton will be held out of Friday's contest due to his right knee injury. With Middleton out, Will Riley could see an expanded role against the Lakers, though the 19-year-old hasn't been a very productive player during his rookie campaign. Justin Champagnie and Bub Carrington may get a chance to step up offensively without Middleton.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (foot) is available to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Middleton will make his return on Tuesday after missing Saturday's contest due to left foot soreness. The return of Middleton should push Will Riley back to the bench after making his first start on Saturday. In January, Middleton is averaging 9.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.9 assists in 23.7 minutes per game in nine contests. He has been playing well enough to be worth a look in deep formats as a streaming option for Tuesday's slate.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (foot) will miss Saturday's game against Charlotte as he continues to recover from a left foot injury, with Tuesday against Portland next on the schedule. His absence reshapes Washington's wing rotation and opens short-term fantasy opportunities. Justin Champagnie is the best bet to benefit after logging a start recently and averaging 9.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 1.4 steals over his last five games in 24.8 minutes. Will Riley could see added run, though his production has been inconsistent of late.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (illness) was upgraded from questionable to available for his team's rematch with the Nuggets on Thursday. The veteran forward had 16 points, seven rebounds, and four assists in Denver last Saturday and has been turning in good numbers in the absence of Bilal Coulibaly (back) for the last week. Middleton will likely start alongside Kyshawn George in the frontcourt on Thursday, with Justin Champagnie and rookie Will Riley carrying the workload off the bench. With Couliably downgraded to out, Middleton, George, and Champagnie are interesting options as value DFS plays or streamers against the Nuggets.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Sacramento due to right knee injury management after appearing in three straight contests. The absence opens short-term fantasy value on the wing, especially with Bilal Coulibaly (back) also sidelined. Justin Champagnie profiles as a viable streaming option after playing well off the bench, averaging 10.0 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.0 three-pointers in 23.4 minutes over his last five games. Rookie Will Riley should also see added run, but remains more of a fringe fantasy option.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) is ready to play ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Middleton sat out of Wednesday's game, which isn't shocking considering it was the second leg of a back-to-back set. The veteran forward is back in the starting five ahead of Friday's tip-off. This season, Middleton is averaging 9.8 points, 3.2 assists, and 4.1 rebounds across 24.4 minutes per game this season. Middleton is going to have his rest games, but is consistent enough to be trusted as a low-end streaming option.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) won't suit up on Monday night against the Suns. The veteran logged 23 minutes in Sunday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies, finishing with 10 points, six rebounds, one steal, and one block. As usual, he'll sit out the second of back-to-back contests. With Kyshawn George (hip) also ruled out, Justin Champagnie might enter the starting lineup. The 24-year-old has averaged 8.3 points and 6.0 rebounds in eight starts throughout the 2025 campaign. With that in mind, Champagnie is worth streaming in most fantasy formats even if he comes off the bench behind Bilal Coulibaly.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Tuesday's matchup against the Charlotte Hornets. The veteran is managing a right knee injury and didn't play in Sunday's loss to the San Antonio Spurs as Washington wrapped up a back-to-back. Middleton has done a decent job in limited minutes this season, posting 10.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game. However, he had a very poor performance in his last outing, finishing with only six points on 1-for-9 shooting in 22 minutes against the Memphis Grizzlies. Relying on Middleton to deliver a bounce-back performance on Tuesday carries significant risk.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) is available on Saturday against the Memphis Grizzlies. The injury-prone veteran has been out for four games due to a right knee contusion. Over 16 appearances, Middleton has averaged 10.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists in 25.8 minutes. He has started in all 16 games and is expected to return to the first unit on Saturday. This is a good fantasy matchup for Middleton and the Wizards, as both teams like to run, which could lead to a shootout.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) will miss a fourth consecutive game on Thursday night against the San Antonio Spurs. The veteran is nursing a right knee contusion, giving up his spot in the starting unit to Justin Champagnie. Middleton's absence has coincided with Bilal Coulibaly's (oblique) injury layoff. The latter will return to action on Thursday, potentially pushing Champagnie out of the starting lineup. However, even as a starter, Champagnie hasn't provided much fantasy production, averaging 8.7 points and 6.4 rebounds. Middleton is likely to miss at least one more game this week, as Washington starts a back-to-back set on Saturday.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) will remain out for Sunday's game against Indiana, marking his third-straight absence because of a right knee contusion. The 34-year-old is nowhere near as productive as he once was, averaging 10.4 points, the second-lowest mark of his career, adding 4.2 rebounds and 3.5 assists. His next chance to get back on the floor will be Thursday versus the San Antonio Spurs, so perhaps the extra few days off will give him the time needed to recover. Justin Champagnie, amassing 8.0 points and 5.2 rebounds in six starts this season, should continue to fill the void in the rotation.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) will miss a second straight game Friday against Cleveland, further stretching an already thin wing rotation. With Bilal Coulibaly (oblique) and Corey Kispert (thumb) also sidelined, Justin Champagnie has stepped into a larger role, posting 16 points, five rebounds, three assists, one steal, and three blocks in 32 minutes last time out. Rookie Will Riley added 15 points in 19 minutes and remains a deep-league option for points and threes. Champagnie profiles as a boards-and-stocks streamer, while Riley is best treated as matchup dependent.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) is questionable for Saturday's matchup with Atlanta, continuing a stretch where his availability and production have been hard for fantasy managers to rely on. The veteran has bounced in and out of the lineup, and his recent line of 16 points, three rebounds, and four assists underscores a solid but low-ceiling role when active. If he sits, Justin Champagnie, rookie Will Riley, and Cam Whitmore (illness) should absorb extra wing minutes, with Champagnie's rebounding and Whitmore's scoring making them deeper-league streamers rather than standard-league priorities.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (injury management) will not play Tuesday on the second night of the team's back-to-back when they visit the Sixers in Philadelphia. Middleton has played 15 minutes with the Wizards, averaging 10.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and 0.7 steals per game. Without Middleton, Cam Whitmore and Justin Champagnie should both set up for more work on Tuesday, especially if Kyshawn Goerge (toe, questionable) is out as well.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (knee) is not on the injury report for Monday's matchup against the Detroit Pistons. The veteran is managing a right knee injury and has played only once in the past four games. In D.C., Middleton has averaged only 24.4 minutes per game, but he's been productive, notching 10.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 2.4 assists. Still, he will be risky fantasy choice on Monday, as Middleton and his crew will go up against a team that's allowing only 109.5 points per 100 possessions, the third-fewest in the league.

Washington Wizards forward Khris Middleton (elbow) is not on the injury report for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The veteran has missed two games with an elbow issue. Middleton plays a modest role with the Wizards team, but he will occupy a starting spot, sending Justin Champagnie back to the second unit. In six appearances this season, Middleton has averaged 11.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 24.8 minutes. Considering his lengthy injury history, there's a good chance Middleton will once again exit the lineup when Washington heads out for the second leg of a back-to-back on Saturday night against the Dallas Mavericks.
