3 years agoWashington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal is the latest big name to be placed in the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, ruling him out for Thursday's contest against the Knicks. Beal had been on an offensive tear over his past three games, averaging 31 points on 56.2 percent shooting overall. His absence will funnel additional offensive opportunities to all teammates, but it's most likely to benefit Spencer Dinwiddie and Kyle Kuzma from a DFS perspective. Beal's vaccination status could complicate how quickly he is able to return to action, but his next opportunity will come Sunday vs. Philadelphia.--Jesse Borek
