Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma has been ruled out of Sunday’s home game against the Milwaukee Bucks due to right knee soreness.

Kuzma sustained the injury after banging knees with an opponent during Washington’s 116-109 overtime loss to the Toronto Raptors on Saturday.

Kuzma, 27, is averaging 21.4 points, 7.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 58 games (all starts) this season.

Guard Monte Morris also has been ruled out of Sunday’s game due to low back soreness, while forward Deni Avdija is questionable due to gastroenteritis.

For the Bucks, guard Wesley Matthews is out with a right hamstring strain, and three-time All-Star Khris Middleton will miss the game for injury management.
