Wizards' John Wall: Questionable Friday due to migraine
Wall is nursing a migraine and is considered questionable for Friday's game against the Nets, Chase Hughes of CSN Mid-Atlantic reports.
Analysis:
Wall was held out of the team's morning shootaround while he dealt with a headache, but the Wizards didn't go through any sort of extensive workout. The team plans to reevaluate Wall closer to the 7:00 p.m. ET tip off, but even if he feels better by then, there's a real chance that the four-time All-Star point guard could sit out with the Wizards taking on the league-worst Nets in the front end of a back-to-back set. At the very least, expect Wall, who has played in 69 of the team's 71 games and is averaging 36.7 minutes per game on the season -- good for sixth in the NBA -- to see less playing time than normal with the Wizards heavily favored in the contest. For that reason, he may not make for an appealing DFS cornerstone.
