Champagnie played 33 minutes Sunday during the G League Capital City Go-Go's 129-127 win over Westchester and logged 29 points (11-16 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists, two steals and three blocks. Champagnie was dominant for the Go-Go during Sunday's game, scoring a season-high 29 points while shooting an effective 68.8 percent from the field. The two-way player also managed to compile his fourth double-double of the season across just eight games played.
Champagnie contributed 22 points (7-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks across 42 minutes during Saturday's 120-115 G League win over the Long Island Nets. The two-way forward posted his second double-double in only three G League Tip-Off Tournament appearances Saturday. While the 23-year-old scored 22 points and led the club in rebounds, he also racked up a game-high seven turnovers. In the Tip-Off Tournament, Champagnie has averaged 17.3 points, 10.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.3 blocks across 34.9 minutes per game. He will likely spend most of his time with the G League club this season, and he has amassed only five total minutes over two regular-season appearances with the Wizards thus far.
Champagnie amassed no counting stats in one minute during Wednesday's 139-130 loss to San Antonio. Champagnie cracked the rotation for the first time since the opening game, playing just one minute. While there is a chance he can earn some rotation minutes at some point this season, it appears as though he is going to be spending the majority of the next few months warming the bench.
Champagnie registered 16 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 137-114 loss to the Rockets. Despite moving back to the bench, Champagnie turned in another strong performance. Along with a number of his teammates, Champagnie has put himself on the fantasy radar over the past week. In that time, he has been able to put up top-100 numbers, averaging 10.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.8 three-pointers and 2.3 combined steals and blocks.
Champagnie will come off the bench for Tuesday's game against Houston. Champagnie will give way to second-year guard Johnny Davis in the starting lineup Tuesday. Washington enters the contest with only nine available players, so Champagnie maintaining a 25-30 minute role is plausible.
Champagnie recorded 14 points (5-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two steals and one assist over 36 minutes in Sunday's 130-104 loss to Boston. Champagnie got his first career start with the Wizards shorthanded, leading all players in Sunday's contest in rebounds to go along with a team-leading pair of steals and ending as one of four players with a double-digit point total in a near double-double outing. Champagnie set season high marks in scoring, rebounds and steals while posting his second game with at least 10 points and seven rebounds this season, both of which have taken place in the last two outings.
Champagnie will start Sunday's game against the Celtics. Champagnie will make his first career NBA start for the shorthanded Wizards. He played 25 minutes during Saturday's loss in Chicago and totaled 11 points, seven rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal.
Champagnie signed a two-way contract with Washington on Sunday, Chris Haynes of Turner Sports reports. With Champagnie's 10-day contract expiring Sunday, Washington will opt to give him some more permanent security on the roster by handing him a two-way deal after he tallied 11 points, one rebound and one assist across 16 minutes in three appearances. The 6-foot-6 wing joins a relatively crowded rotation of swingmen off the bench that includes Jordan Poole, Landry Shamet, Corey Kispert and Johnny Davis.
