Head coach Brian Keefe said Sarr (hamstring) will play around 16-20 minutes during Sunday's game against New Orleans, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Sarr is set to return from a 10-game absence due to a right hamstring strain, though he won't be rushed into an increased workload. With the second-year center on a minutes restriction, Julian Reese will likely continue to see meaningful playing time.

Wizards' Alex Sarr: Set to return Sunday
Rotowire
Sarr (hamstring) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
Sarr has been rehabbing from a right hamstring strain that caused him to miss 10 consecutive games dating back to mid-February. His absence from the injury report indicates that he's progressed enough in his recovery to return Sunday, and if he moves back into the starting lineup, then Julian Reese will likely revert to a rotational role off the bench.

Wizards' Alex Sarr: Out two weeks with hamstring strain
Rotowire
The Wizards announced Thursday that Sarr has been diagnosed with a right hamstring strain and is expected to face a two-week recovery timeline.
Sarr sat out Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers with what the team had classified as right hamstring tightness, but follow-up tests confirmed that the second-year big man is dealing with a strain. As a result of the injury, Sarr will sit out the Castrol Rising Stars exhibition at All-Star weekend in Los Angeles, and he'll likely miss at least a handful of contests coming out of the All-Star break. Tristan Vukcevic (illness) joined Sarr on the sideline for Wednesday's loss, but Vukcevic will likely be ready to fill in for Sarr as the Wizards' starting center in the team's next game Feb. 19 versus the Pacers.
