Wizards' Rui Hachimura: Out Friday

Hachimura (COVID-19) won't play in Friday's game against Milwaukee.

The Wizards are currently plagued with COVID-19, and Hachimura is among the affected players. Davis Bertans (COVID-19) is out as well Friday, so Isaac Bonga will likely garner a start. According to Fred Katz of The Athletic, coach Scott Brooks doesn't expect any of the players in the health and safety protocol to play on the upcoming four-game road trip, so Hachimura may be unavailable until at least Jan. 29 against the Hawks. It's worth keeping a close eye on the Wizards' extensive injury reports.
