We are eight games into the NBA regular season, and Mortiz Wagner has already fouled out twice. Once against the Dallas Mavericks to start the season. Then again against the Indiana Pacers. In both contests, Wagner played less than 17 minutes.
It’s been an up and down start to Wagner’s Washington Wizards career. The former 25th pick from the 2018 NBA Draft came over from the Los Angeles Lakers via trade this summer with Isaac Bonga. Despite Bonga getting the starting minutes through the first few games, Wagner is the former Laker that the Wizards are most excited about.
