Wizards' Alex Sarr: Posts another double-double
Rotowire
Sarr posted 16 points (5-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and three blocks across 30 minutes during Monday's 119-104 loss to the Raptors.
Sarr has been one of the most consistent rookies in the 2024-25 season, and the Frenchman has improved vastly compared to how he was playing in the early stages of the campaign. This was his second consecutive double-double, and he's notched that feat eight times already in 2024-25.

Sarr ended with 10 points (5-16 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 0-2 FT), 14 rebounds, three assists and one block across 28 minutes during Saturday's 118-117 victory over the Raptors.
The second overall pick in the 2024 Draft collected the seventh double-double of his career, and his first since Jan. 23.

Sarr closed Wednesday's 125-122 victory over Utah with 21 points (8-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal over 29 minutes.
Sarr reached the 20-point mark for the first time since Feb. 21, when he notched 22 points and seven boards in a loss to the Bucks. The rookie Frenchman has been struggling with injuries lately, and he's been limited to just five appearances since the beginning of November. The lack of availability limits his upside a bit.

Wizards' Alex Sarr: Modest output in return
Rotowire
Sarr (ankle) tallied 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals across 26 minutes Saturday in the Wizards' 113-100 win over the Hornets.
Sarr made his return to action after missing the previous three games with a left ankle sprain. He took back his spot in the starting five and ended up seeing the larger share of playing time at center, with Richaun Holmes moving into a backup role and covering the other 22 minutes. The Wizards will continue to prioritize Sarr when he's healthy enough to play, and while he's already proven to be a strong source of defensive stats with averages of 1.5 blocks and 0.7 steals per contest, the rookie's poor efficiency will make his scoring more volatile from game to game.
