2024 Fantasy Outlook
Holmes agreed to a two-year, $25.9 million contract with the Wizards in the offseason, and the veteran big man should add frontcourt depth to a rebuilding team. However, Holmes' best path at regular minutes will be to operate as Jonas Valanciunas' backup, meaning his playing time could settle around the 20-minute range. That would be an increase compared to the last two seasons, when he averaged 8.3 and 13.9 minutes per game, respectively, while playing for Sacramento, Dallas and Washington. Still, playing as a backup center on a rebuilding team, and especially considering the team's top prospect -- Alex Sarr -- is also a frontcourt option, Holmes might not see enough minutes or get enough touches to be a valuable fantasy contributor. Holmes might have some appeal in deep formats and as a streaming option due to the lack of depth the Wizards have in the frontcourt, but even in that scenario, his floor and upside are relatively low. There's no reason to draft Holmes in most formats. Read Past Outlooks

Holmes is one of the most intriguing players entering the 2022-23 season. The center was a stud his first two years in Sacramento, but the Kings lost faith in him after acquiring Domantas Sabonis. That had Holmes averaging 3.1 points and 1.9 rebounds across 8.3 minutes a night last year. That drop-off was massive because Holmes averaged 13.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.5 blocks on 65 percent shooting in his first two seasons with Sacramento. Many teams would give anything to have a big man produce like that, and it's why Dallas decided to take a swing on him in free agency. There might not have been a better place for Holmes to go, either, because the Mavericks are desperately missing a center presence. Christian Wood wore out his welcome, and JaVale McGee was ineffective. Dwight Powell and Maxi Kleber may be the only big men Holmes is battling on this roster, though it remains to be seen how ready Dereck Lively is. Still, at this point, it's unclear what Holmes' role will look like. We could see him starting at center and playing 30 minutes a night or coming off the bench and barely totaling 20 minutes a game. All of that has fantasy managers wondering what's next for Holmes, but he's one of the best punt plays at the end of drafts right now.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Wizards could shop him
The Wizards could shop Holmes this offseason, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
With Alex Sarr coming off a strong rookie season with some terrific defense, the Wizards know who their starting center will be for 2025-26. They currently don't have much depth in the frontcourt, however, so it's likely the Wizards add some reinforcements up front if Holmes does end up going elsewhere via trade. Holmes is on an expiring $13.28 million contract and did play well in 31 regular-season appearances, posting averages of 7.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 0.7 blocks in 17.2 minutes.
