Marcin Gortat struggles in Wizards' win on Monday night

Washington Wizards center Marcin Gortat scored 13 points but turned the ball over four times before fouling out of Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets.

What It Means:

Gortat has slowed down since opening with a double-double last week. His five rebounds last night were the lowest to date this season. On the defensive end, he struggled to avoid fouling against Nikola Jokic and company. However, Washington can't argue with a 3-0 start.

Averaging 30.7 FanDuel points per game, Gortat is projected for 10.4 points, 28.0 FD points and 30.5 minutes in Wednesday's road game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
