The news comes after all three were listed as questionable on the team’s latest injury report.

The team will still have Marvin Bagley (knee), Kyle Kuzma (ribs) and Saddiq Bey (torn ACL) unavailable for the game.

With the Wizards’ three young players available, it gives them a better chance to get their second win against the Hornets this season. There is a good chance that at least two, if not all three, will be in the starting lineup for the team.

The Wizards season is all about seeing if the trio above and Kyshawn George can establish themselves as part of the team’s core moving forward, so having them play in as many games as possible is key for Washington as the year progresses .

Tipoff between the Hornets and the Wizards is set for 7 PM ET inside Capital One Arena. The game can be seen on Monumental Sports Network or streamed on NBA League Pass.
