Riley produced 18 points (5-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes of Thursday's 92-88 Summer League win over the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Riley made a strong impression Thursday, but he has a lot of work to do to earn a spot in the Wizards' much-improved rotation. On Washington's projected depth chart, Riley is slotted behind AJ Dybantsa and Bilal Coulibaly.

Riley recorded six points (2-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and four assists across 34 minutes during Sunday's 130-117 loss to the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Riley struggled from the floor Sunday, closing his season with a disappointing performance. Much like many of his teammates, Riley was able to shift into a sizeable role down the stretch, with Washington packing up shop early in the piece. In 17 appearances over the past month, Riley saw 32.4 minutes per game, during which he put up 16.6 points, 1.1 steals and 1.6 three-pointers.

Riley is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus Miami.
EDGE Analysis
Bilal Coulibaly is back from a one-game absence due to a heel injury and is pushing Riley to the second unit. Riley has played at least 25 minutes in each of his last 10 appearances as a reserve, so the rookie first-rounder should still play a key role off the bench Friday.

Riley logged 23 points (8-22 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists, three blocks and three steals across 38 minutes during Thursday's 119-108 loss to the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis
Riley led the Wizards in the scoring department, though he needed 22 field-goal attempts to do so. He remained ice cold from beyond the arc, where he's now 1-for-14 over his previous two appearances. Riley managed to make up for his shooting woes by stuffing the stat sheet, and his production Thursday was much improved in comparison to his final line from Tuesday, when he tallied two points, six rebounds, three assists and two steals in 31 minutes against Chicago.

EDGE Analysis
With Bilal Coulibaly (heel) out, Riley will step back into the starting lineup. As a starter this season (16 games), the rookie first-rounder has averaged 16.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.0 steals in 33.7 minutes per tilt.

Riley is coming off the bench in Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
EDGE Analysis
Bilal Coulibaly (heel) is replacing Riley in the starting lineup Tuesday. Riley has played at least 25 minutes in each of his last nine appearances as a reserve, so the expectation is that he'll still play significant minutes from the second unit.

Riley finished with 30 points (9-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 9-12 FT), four rebounds and six assists across 35 minutes in Sunday's 121-115 loss to Brooklyn.
EDGE Analysis
Riley scored a career-high 31 points in Saturday's 152-136 loss to Miami. Although he narrowly missed that mark versus the Nets, he still managed to become the first Wizards rookie to record back-to-back outings with at least 30 points since 1994 (Calbert Cheaney). The 2025 No. 21 overall pick has played well in three games in April, averaging 24.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 steals while shooting 69.0 percent from the field and 40.0 percent from downtown across 34.5 minutes of work.
