Wizards' Jason Smith (calf) is game-time call for Friday's Game 6
Washington Wizards forward/center Jason Smith (calf) is a game-time call for Game 6 against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday.
What It Means:
He suffered a left calf contusion during Wednesday's Game 5 and wasn't able to return. He's considered day-to-day and received treatment on Thursday instead of practicing. If he's out, center Marcin Gortat will have to play more and the Wizards may be inclined to use smaller lineups with power forward Markieff Morris logging some center minutes.
numberFire's algorithms project Smith for 5.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 0.5 assists in 15.1 minutes tomorrow evening.
