Washington Wizards Star Suffers Injury, Will Miss Time

Bradley Beal to Miss Multiple Games with Hamstring Strain

Washington Wizards star guard Bradley Beal has suffered a hamstring strain and will miss multiple games, the team announced Thursday. The injury occurred during the Wizards' 118-95 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night.

Beal, 29, is averaging 23.2 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 6.2 assists per game this season. He is one of the Wizards' most important players and his absence will be a major blow to the team.

How Long Will Beal be Out?

The Wizards have not yet announced a timetable for Beal's return, but hamstring injuries typically take several weeks to heal.

The Wizards are currently 11-15 this season and are in 12th place in the Eastern Conference. They will need to find a way to replace Beal's production if they want to make a run at the playoffs.

Wizards to Sign Guard Cassius Winston to 10-Day Contract

The Wizards have also announced that they have signed guard Cassius Winston to a 10-day contract.

Winston, 24, played for the Detroit Pistons last season. He averaged 3.8 points and 2.5 assists per game in 29 appearances.

The Wizards are hoping that Winston can provide some depth in the backcourt while Beal is out.
