Wizards' Brogdon, Poole Out with Injuries

Malcolm Brogdon will miss Wednesday's game against the 76ers due to a right foot injury, marking his second consecutive absence, and his status for Friday's game against the Bulls remains uncertain. His injury follows an early exit from Sunday's game against the Pelicans, where he started in place of Jordan Poole, who is recovering from a hip contusion. The Washington Wizards have been adjusting their gameplay style due to Poole's absence, with players like Jared Butler and Kyle Kuzma stepping up offensively. Despite the challenges, Wizards' head coach Brian Keefe emphasizes resilience, highlighting the team's capability to perform well even without their key players. The Wizards are set to face the Houston Rockets next, requiring further adaptation and contributions from their roster.
