Trae Young ejected from game after leaving bench, days before his expected Wizards debut

  • On March 5, 2026, Trae Young is expected to make his Wizards debut at home against the Utah Jazz.
  • Traded on Jan. 7, Young had been sidelined since Dec. 27 by right-leg MCL and quadriceps injuries and has not yet played for Washington.
  • A person with direct knowledge confirmed Monday that Young is trending toward being ready and would likely be restricted to about 17 to 20 minutes, mostly in the first half, as coach Brian Keefe said.
  • With a 16-43 record, the Wizards hope Young and Anthony Davis help rebound, while their Top-8 protected first-round pick remains at risk if they win late-season games.
  • The Wizards, amid eight straight losses, are dealing with Anthony Davis missing the season and Alex Sarr sidelined.
