Sarr finished with 18 points (7-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals across 26 minutes during Wednesday's 121-111 loss to the Cavaliers.
Sarr made an impact on both ends of the floor, shooting efficiently while complementing his scoring output with five combined steals and blocks. The third-year center was particularly active defensively, leading all players with four steals despite playing fewer than 30 minutes. His combination of defensive production and developing perimeter game gives him considerable upside in category-based fantasy formats.

Wizards' Alex Sarr: Three rejections in Saturday's win
Rotowire
Sarr amassed 10 points (5-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and three blocks over 23 minutes during Saturday's 124-120 victory over the Bulls.
After failing to record a block in the first two games of the season, Sarr opened his account with a big night at the rim in Chicago. The third-year center's 10 points were also his best effort yet in 2026-27, as he attempts to find his place in an offense that's set to be dominated by Trae Young and Anthony Davis as long as both veterans stay healthy, and which will need to accommodate first overall pick AJ Dybantsa (ankle) in the near future as well.

Wizards' Alex Sarr: Another quiet night
Rotowire
Sarr totaled seven points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals over 25 minutes during Friday's 112-102 loss to Toronto.
Sarr has opened the season with back-to-back games of less than 10 points, and he attempted only four shots during Friday's loss. The 2024 first-overall pick has seen steady usage in his first two years in the NBA, but there will be major adjustments for him in 2026-27 in his first year playing with both Trae Young and Anthony Davis.

Wizards' Alex Sarr: Quiet in season-opening victory
Rotowire
Sarr contributed six points (3-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt), nine rebounds and two assists across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 128-116 victory over the Bucks.
Sarr's 2026-27 debut alongside Anthony Davis (34/12/4/1/2) left a lot to be desired. The first overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft was unable to make an impact on the defensive end after averaging 2.0 blocks and 0.8 steals across 48 regular-season appearances in 2025-26. Sarr will aim to make more of an impact on Friday against the Raptors.

General manager Will Dawkins said Thursday that Sarr is expected to be ready for the start of the regular season, so the limited workload to begin camp appears precautionary.

Wizards' Alex Sarr: Role change unlikely
Rotowire
Washington's selection of AJ Dybantsa with the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft likely won't significantly alter Sarr's (foot) role heading into his third NBA season.
The 21-year-old big man is currently recovering from foot surgery but is expected to be ready for training camp after averaging 16.3 points, 7.4 rebounds and 2.0 blocks in 48 regular-season appearances last year. Sarr remains a major part of the franchise's long-term plans, although the additions of established veterans could reduce some offensive responsibilities. His defensive upside should continue to provide substantial fantasy value if he can stay healthy.
