Wizards' Alex Sarr (hamstring) out for Rising Stars game

  • On Feb 12, 2026, Washington Wizards center Alex Sarr sustained a right hamstring strain and will miss approximately two weeks, including Friday’s Rising Stars game in Inglewood, Calif.
  • Sarr did not play in Wednesday’s 138-113 loss at Cleveland because of right hamstring tightness, and news of his absence emerged hours before the Cavaliers matchup.
  • Among NBA sophomores, Sarr is averaging 17.2 points and 7.8 rebounds this season, making him one of three players with 17 points, seven rebounds and two blocks per game.
  • The NBA announced Bub Carrington will replace Sarr on Team T-Mac, but Sarr will still join Wizards teammates Kyshawn George and Tre Johnson in Southern California.
  • With Marvin Bagley III gone and Tristan Vukcevic hobbled, Washington may again turn to Skal Labissière for minutes amid thin Wizards rotation depth.
