Rotowire
Gill will come off the bench for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Rockets, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
The Wizards are mailing it in for their final game of the regular season, so Gill might not log too many minutes Sunday. He's a risky guy to deploy with the Wizards likely looking to give some experience to the younger guys on the roster.

Wizards' Anthony Gill: Makes return Monday
Rotowire
Gill (COVID-19 protocols) played 21 minutes and finished with six points (2-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist in Monday's 114-91 loss to the Cavaliers.
Following a four-game stint in the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, Gill was cleared to play ahead of the Wizards' three-game Week 17 slate. Due to the absences of Bradley Beal (foot) and Kyle Kuzma (ankle), Gill ended up playing a healthy amount of minutes off the bench, but the 30-year-old may be in store for a decreased role Wednesday against the Hornets if at least one of the two injured players returns to action.

Rotowire

Gill missed the last five games due to the league's health and safety protocols but will be able to suit up Monday. He isn't a guarantee to see the court when healthy, but he could see some playing time against Cleveland since Kyle Kuzma (ankle) has been ruled out.

Rotowire
Gill (COVID-19 protocols) has been upgraded to questionable for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.

Rotowire
Gill (COVID-19 protocols) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against Cleveland.

Wizards' Anthony Gill: Ruled out Saturday
Rotowire
Gill has entered the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols and will be out for Saturday's game against New Orleans.
Gill was previously absent from the injury report but will end up joining Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) on the sidelines for Saturday's tilt. He will face an uphill battle to clear protocols in time for Monday's game against the Spurs. For as long as Gill is out, Kyle Kuzma, Deni Avdija and Corey Kispert are candidates to receive a few more minutes.

Wizards' Anthony Gill: Stuns with career-high 18 points
Rotowire
Gill had 18 points (7-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 100-97 victory over the Bulls.
Gill hadn't scored more than eight points in a game since Halloween, but with Kristaps Porzingis (ribs) and Daniel Gafford (ankle) both unavailable, the Wizards needed all the frontcourt help they could get. Gill rose to the challenge and set a new career high in points, although the 30-year-old didn't add much else to his ledger. Even if Washington's injury issues persist, it's hard to have any confidence in Gill repeating this performance.

Wizards' Anthony Gill: Minimal impact in loss
Rotowire
Gill posted two points (1-2 FG), two rebounds and one assist in 15 minutes during Thursday's 113-105 loss to the Mavericks.
Gill only played 15 minutes despite starting Thursday, likely due to the four fouls he picked up. When Bradley Beal (COVID-19) and Kristaps Porzingis (groin) return to the lineup, Gill should return to his typical bench role.
