Beal (concussion) will be available off the bench Thursday against the Nuggets, Jorge Castillo of The Washington Post reports.

Analysis:

Just a few days removed from a collision with Marcus Smart that left him with a broken nose and a concussion, Beal will be back in uniform for the Wizards on Thursday. However, Garrett Temple will remain in the starting lineup against the Nuggets, so it's a very distinct possibility that the Wizards' coaching staff will be cautious with Beal's usage in his first game back since passing through the concussion protocol.
