Ariza (groin) participated in shootaround ahead of Monday night's game versus the Bobcats, the Washington Post reports.

Analysis:

Ariza felt something in his left groin during the third quarter of Saturday's game, but ultimately was able to return to the action and finish the contest. While his playing status should be updated before Monday's game, Ariza reportedly felt fine during the Wizards' shootaround, so he figures to be in the lineup when tip-off rolls around.
