Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Not listed on injury report
Coulibaly (hand) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's meeting in Indiana.
Coulibaly is set to return from a one-game absence, which may result in fewer minutes for Will Riley. Coulibaly is averaging 7.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks per game this season.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Won't play Monday
Coulibaly (hand) is out for Monday's game against the Pistons.
Coulibaly is missing his first game of the season Monday with a hand injury. Tre Johnson and Bub Carrington both make sense as streaming options for fantasy managers in the short term.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Iffy for Monday
Coulibaly (hand) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Detroit.
Coulibaly's availability is uncertain ahead of Monday's matchup due to soreness in his hand, leaving Washington's wing rotation potentially shorthanded. If he's unable to suit up, the Wizards could turn to their remaining perimeter options for additional minutes, creating some short-term fantasy opportunities. His status should become clearer closer to tipoff.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Starting versus Thunder
Coulibaly will start in Saturday's game against Oklahoma City.
Coulibaly will make his first start since the 110-102 loss to Charlotte on Oct. 26. In four starts during the 2026-27 campaign, the 22-year-old has averaged 8.0 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.8 steals over 27.3 minutes per outing.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Available Wednesday
Coulibaly (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Hawks.
Coulibaly is under the weather Wednesday but is giving it a go for the Wizards. Now that AJ Dybantsa's minutes restriction is lifted, Coulibaly could see less playing time going forward.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Downgraded to questionable
Coulibaly (illness) is questionable for Wednesday against the Hawks.
Coulibaly was a late addition to the injury report after waking up under the weather. If the Wizards end up holding Coulibaly out, the team could turn more to Khris Middleton and/or Will Riley.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Tumbles back to earth in win
Coulibaly accumulated one point (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 22 minutes during Friday's 95-79 victory over Charlotte.
Coulibaly produced his worst performance of the season, while also logging a season-low 22 minutes. With AJ Dybantsa now firmly established in the starting lineup, Coulibaly is likely to flirt with no more than about 24 minutes per game moving forward. Unless you are desperate for steals, it is probably safe to move on him in standard fantasy formats.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Moving to bench
Couliably won't start Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
AJ Dybantsa is ready to make his NBA regular-season debut after missing Washington's first four games with a left ankle sprain, so Coulibaly will slide to the second unit. The 22-year-old forward is averaging 8.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 0.8 blocks across 27.3 minutes per contest.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Struggles in loss
Coulibaly supplied three points (1-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes during Monday's 110-103 loss to the Hornets.
Coulibaly struggled to generate offense, finishing with more personal fouls (five) than points. The forward has scored 11 points or fewer in each of his four appearances this season, although his defensive contributions have provided some fantasy value. He should continue seeing substantial playing time while AJ Dybantsa (ankle) remains sidelined.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Starting sans Dybantsa
Coulibaly is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Bucks.
Fantasy managers will have to wait at least one more game for rookie No. 1 overall pick AJ Dybantsa (ankle) to make his highly anticipated NBA debut, with Coulibaly getting the nod in the first unit for Opening Night. The third-year forward can struggle with his shooting efficiency at times, but Coulibaly is capable of contributing across the board and makes sense as a plug-and-play fantasy option Wednesday.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Scores 19 points off bench Monday
Coulibaly recorded 19 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, an assist, three steals and a block across 24 minutes off the bench in Monday's 131-122 preseason loss to the Nets.
Coulibaly provided an impressive two-way performance off Washington's bench, shooting 63.6 percent from the field while also notching strong numbers on the defensive end. This is a make-or-break year for Coulibaly, who's expected to open the season as a bench alternative after the Wizards drafted AJ Dybantsa with the first overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. Coulibaly can be an intriguing fantasy option as long as he logs enough playing time, but his role remains uncertain this season after posting down numbers in the 2025-26 campaign, when he averaged 11.7 points, 4.3 boards and 2.6 assists per game -- all downgrades compared to 2024-25.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Poor offensive showing
Coulibaly finished with two points (1-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist in 19 minutes during Thursday's 111-109 preseason win over New York.
Coulibaly endured a difficult shooting performance, connecting on just one field-goal attempt while committing two turnovers. The young wing will look to establish a more consistent offensive rhythm during Washington's remaining preseason contests, though his defensive versatility should continue to help him compete for substantial regular-season minutes.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Back in action this summer
Coulibaly (heel) put up 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals in 21 minutes during France's 80-72 win over Belgium on Saturday.
Coulibaly missed the end of the NBA regular season with a heel injury, but he's back in action for FIBA play this summer. The defensive-minded swingman is preparing for his fourth season with the Wizards, having averaged 11.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks in 26.2 minutes over 56 games in 2025-26.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Reduced role incoming?
Coulibaly (heel) could continue to see significant minutes, though likely off the bench, after Washington's selection of AJ Dybantsa with the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
His defensive versatility and ability to guard multiple positions complement the team's offensive-minded players, giving him a relatively secure role entering 2026-27. The presence of additional perimeter talent may limit his scoring opportunities, but Coulibaly still projects as an important contributor capable of providing value through defensive statistics. During the 2025-26 regular season, he averaged 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks.
