Thomas Bryant (foot) '100 percent' for Wizards
Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant said he's "fully healed, 100 percent healed" from a foot stress fracture that plagued him from January to March.
What It Means:
Bryant averaged 28.4 minutes over the first 18 games of the season before injuring his foot. Following a 20-game absence, Bryant's playing time dropped to 19.5 minutes per game before the season was suspended. Davis Bertans is sitting out the rest of the year and Bradley Beal is considering joining him, so Bryant could see an expanded role in Orlando. He averaged 13.9 points and 8.5 boards during those first 18 contests.
Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Wizards are tied for having the worst odds (+25000) to win the NBA Championship. Bryant has a 20.9 percent usage rate when Beal isn't on the court this season.
