Wizards vs. Heat

Carrington is averaging 4.8 assists over his last six games and has cleared this 3.5-assist threshold in four of his last five outings. Despite the recent acquisition of Trae Young, Carrington’s high usage off the bench remains intact as Young continues to play limited minutes (19 in his debut) while ramping up. This sustained playmaking role is well-positioned against a Miami defense that allows a 113.4 rating to opposing guards and frequently yields high-volume assist opportunities through their defensive rotations.
