Gary Neal (leg) will not play for Wizards against Philadelphia

Washington Wizards guard Gary Neal (leg) did not travel with the team for Friday's game versus the Philadelphia 76ers.

What It Means:

He was a late scratch for Wednesday's game against the Chiago Bulls, but it makes sense for the Wizards to be cautious since Alan Anderson is back in the mix. Neal is safe to leave on the wire in most leagues.

Neal has earned a -0.8 nERD through his 40 games played this season, ranking 82nd overall. His 55.8 True Shooting Percentage is the second-best mark of his career, and he is averaging 9.8 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.0 3-pointers per game on the season.
