2023 Fantasy Outlook
Kispert made some minor leaps in his sophomore season, and this year will be the best indicator of what his ceiling can be. Washington has decided to go in full-on tank mode, getting rid of Kristaps Porzingis, Bradley Beal and Monte Morris over the last year. That's left this roster extremely thin, and it should guarantee Kispert a starting 30-minute role. He actually did that for most of last season, averaging 11.1 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.4 steals across 28.3 minutes a night. His calling card is his shooting, though, hitting 2.2 threes while shooting 49.7 percent from the field, 85.2 percent from the free-throw line and 42.4 percent from three-point range. While we are excited about the bump in scoring opportunities, the fantasy profile is ugly when looking at everything else. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Gonzaga product creep closer to 15 points per game on great shooting peripherals, but be aware that you're not getting much else outside of scoring. That's why he'll go undrafted in most leagues, but he's worth keeping an eye on if the Wizards decide to give him more playmaking opportunities. Read Past Outlooks

Goes for 25 points Tuesday
FWashington Wizards
April 10, 2024
Kispert posted 25 points (9-17 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and five assists over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 130-121 loss to Minnesota.
ANALYSIS
Kispert earned a regular starting role on March 10 and never looked back, establishing himself as a reliable scoring alternative on a rebuilding Wizards team. Kispert has scored in double digits in each of his last 12 contests, a span in which he's averaging 18.4 points per game while shooting an impressive 43.2 percent from three-point range. He should have decent fantasy upside in Washington's final two games of the campaign, as he's also averaging 13.3 shots per game in that 12-game stretch.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Suatained shooting growth
FWashington Wizards
December 19, 2022
Kispert is connecting on 49.1 percent of his shots, including 41.4 percent of 4.3 three-point attempts per game this season.
ANALYSIS
Kispert logged a vastly inferior 45.5/35.0/87.1 percent shooting slash as a rookie, denoting very positive growth in year two. Across his past 10 games, Kispert is averaging 10.1 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists while hitting 40 percent of his threes.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
On a team that struggled for positive storylines last season, Kispert was a pleasant surprise. While he did end well outside the top 250, he picked things up down the stretch. He started the final 29 games and averaged 11.6 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.3 threes in 31.5 minutes. However, his usage and minutes were inflated due to Bradley Beal's absence. Kispert will presumably continue to be in the rotation as a sophomore, but he's a pure three-point shooter and will compete against Johnny Davis, Will Barton and Deni Avdija for time on the wing. He can be avoided in all but the deepest of leagues.
One of the best pure shooters in college basketball, Kispert helped lead Gonzaga to the National Title Game last season. The 6-7 senior averaged 18.6 points, 5.0 rebounds and shot 44.0 percent from three -- just a notch higher than his 2019-20 figure (43.8% 3PT). Kispert offers a bit more than the typical "shooting specialist" archetype, but firing away from deep is exactly what the Wizards will ask him to do in Year 1. There's a chance Kispert could be of use to fantasy managers in need of threes, but he'll have to compete with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Davis Bertans, Kyle Kuzma and last year's first-rounder, Deni Avdija, for minutes in what's suddenly a crowded wing rotation.
