• Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Career-high 27 points vs. Hawks

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Coulibaly accumulated 27 points (11-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, three steals and one block over 34 minutes during Wednesday's 133-120 win over Atlanta. Just two days after scoring a then career-best 23 points, Coulibaly surpassed that total with 27 points on just 14 field-goal attempts during Wednesday's win. The 2023 first-round pick began his rookie season on the bench, but he steadily saw his role increase and has continued to see more playing time and responsibilities early on in his sophomore year. Through the first four games of the 2024-25 regular season, Coulibaly is averaging 18.8 points on 59.1 percent shooting, 5.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.5 steals across 34.0 minutes per contest.

• Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Pops for 23 points in loss

  18D ago • By RotoWire

  Coulibaly had 23 points (9-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 35 minutes during Saturday's 135-116 loss to the Cavaliers. While Coulibaly scored only eight points on six shots in the season-opening loss to Boston, the second-year wing made his presence felt elsewhere. He grabbed six boards, dished out six assists and recorded a steal in 30 minutes. Coulibaly didn't have as good of a well-rounded game versus Cleveland, but he found his stroke from deep and was more assertive offensively, tying Kyle Kuzma with a team-high 16 shot attempts. This is an encouraging start for Coulibaly in fantasy, especially considering Washington's first two opponents are considered some of the best teams in the Eastern Conference.
