Khris Middleton Sits Out Tuesday's Game vs. 76ers for Knee Maintenance

Khris Middleton (knee) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers, taking the night off for maintenance as it's the second half of a back-to-back for the Washington Wizards. The veteran forward is expected to return to the lineup on Friday against the Celtics. In Middleton's absence on Tuesday, Cam Whitmore and Justin Champagnie are anticipated to take on larger roles for the team.
