Wizards' Bub Carrington: Underwhelms again Saturday
Carrington supplied eight points (3-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds and four assists over 24 minutes during Saturday's 121-120 loss to the Bulls.
Carrington continues to play a limited role off the bench, having logged fewer than 25 minutes in five straight games. After a serviceable rookie campaign, Carrington has slipped down the pecking order in Washington, averaging just 6.3 points, 4.1 assists and 1.3 three-pointers through his first 16 games.

Wizards' Bub Carrington: Another lackluster performance
Carrington had seven points (3-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 135-112 loss to Houston.
Carrington logged the fewest amount of minutes all season Wednesday, and he was not able to do much with his time on the court. While it is likely his minutes were cut short due to the blowout nature of the game, Carrington needs to improve his efficiency if he wants to remain in the rotation, as he is averaging just 6.5 points on 32.5 percent from the field.

Wizards' Bub Carrington: Not starting Saturday
Carrington is not in the Wizards' starting lineup against the Mavericks on Saturday.
Carrington will cede his spot in the starting lineup to Tre Johnson. Carrington made his fifth start of the season during Friday's 148-114 loss to the Cavaliers, when he logged six points (2-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt), 11 assists, four rebounds and one block over 28 minutes.

Wizards' Bub Carrington: Dishes six dimes in loss
Carrington racked up three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds and six assists in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 136-107 loss to the Celtics.
Assist numbers aside, Carrington has been rather underwhelming offensively ever since being relegated to the bench, averaging 3.3 points on 27.8 percent from the field and 22.2 percent from three in his last four games. With CJ McCollum also struggling, the Wizards could turn to Carrington to shake things up in their starting lineup, but in order for that to happen, the 2024 first-round pick would have to give them reason to.

Carrington will come off the bench during Thursday's game against the Thunder.
After starting the first four games of the season, Carrington will be in the second unit, with Bilal Coulibaly making his season debut.

Wizards' Bub Carrington: Rookie team option exercised
The Wizards exercised their rookie option on Carrington for the 2026-27 season Thursday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Carrington has made an impact since being drafted by Washington in the summer of 2024, averaging 9.8 points, 4.4 assists and 4.2 rebounds in his rookie season. Despite the Wizards selecting Tre Johnson in 2025, the team opting to keep Carrington for at least one more season displays their level of trust in the second-year guard.

Wizards' Bub Carrington: Decent line in 38 minutes
Carrington registered 10 points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal in 38 minutes during Tuesday's 139-134 overtime loss to the 76ers.
Carrington was one of three Wizards to see at least 38 minutes in the overtime loss. His usage wasn't through the roof by any means with Kyshawn George and Alex Sarr combining for 51 points, but Carrington posted a solid all-around fantasy line. Through the opening four regular-season contests, Carrington is averaging 8.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.5 three-pointers.

Wizards' Bub Carrington: Muted performance in loss
Carrington ended with 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 133-120 loss to the Bucks.
Carrington joins CJ McCollum as starters who didn't make much of an impact in the regular-season opener. However, Carrington has been dealing with left knee soreness, which may have contributed to his slow start to the 2025-26 campaign.

Carrington closed Sunday's 119-118 victory over the Heat with 15 points (6-18 FG, 3-9 3Pt), seven rebounds, nine assists and one steal over 41 minutes.
The 14th overall pick in the 2024 Draft scored in double digits for the seventh straight game to close out his first NBA campaign in style, and even laid in the winning bucket Sunday as time expired. Since moving into the starting five March 22, Carrington has averaged 14.0 points, 6.2 assists, 5.2 boards, 2.4 threes and 0.9 combined steals and blocks, more than respectable numbers for a teenager. The Pitt product has put himself in a good position to remain in the Wizards' starting backcourt when next season tips off.
