On Thursday, the Washington Wizards announced that guard Bilal Coulibaly will be out for the next four to six weeks due to a right hamstring injury. The injury was sustained on Mar. 10 in Washington’s game against the Toronto Raptors.
Given that the Wizards are the worst team in the Eastern Conference standings, it appears that this is the right call. There is no need to play him aggressively for a playoff spot, and it’s more important to see that Coulibaly is healthy over the long term.
