Washington Wizards injury report for April 3

Since the Wizards are also playing on the second night of a back-to-back against the Lakers, their injury report has yet to be disclosed.

However, Tyus Jones (lumbosacral sprain), Richaun Holmes (left toe contusion), Kyle Kuzma (right heel contusion), Landry Shamet (left calf strain) and Isaiah Livers (joint capsule inflammation) were all absent from the lineup against the Bucks.

Washington appears to be facing significant injury challenges at a particularly challenging juncture in its schedule. The team, however, is not under any pressure in the standings, as it is ineligible to qualify for the play-in tournament, regardless of its performance.
