30.8minutes a night, last 10 games · last season, Apr 12Anthony Gill

Anthony Gill is averaging 30.8 minutes a night over his last 10 games with the Wizards, through April 12, 2026. That is 13.5 minutes more than his average for the full 2025-26 season, when he has played 17.3 minutes a game across 55 games.

Minutes are the base for everything else a player produces. Points, rebounds, and shots all scale with time on the floor. Gill's season average is 5.8 points a game, built mostly across those lower-minute stretches. A role that has grown by 13.5 minutes changes what he can do simply because he is on the court longer.

For the jump to hold, Washington needs to keep giving him this same role for the rest of the season, whether that means more starts, more fourth-quarter minutes, or a bigger share of time at his position. If the Wizards shift their rotation again, for any reason, his minutes can slide back toward the 17.3 mark he has carried for the season as a whole.

Right now there are two numbers describing Anthony Gill: 17.3 minutes a game for the season, and 30.8 minutes a game over his last 10. The season number reflects who he has been for most of the year. The 10-game number reflects what has changed most recently. Whichever one is still true by the end of the season will settle whether this stretch was a real change in his role or a short run tied to this particular part of the schedule.
