Dudley will come off the bench Monday versus the 76ers, Jorge Castillo of The Washington Post reports.

Analysis:

This lineup change was expected to happen eventually after the Wizards traded for Markief Morris prior to the deadline, and it appears to have finally arrived. It's unclear if Morris will end up holding down the role permanently beyond Monday's game, but a strong performance on Morris could certainly put Dudley at risk of settling into a reserve role the rest of the season. Even if the lineup change only proves to be a temporary arrangement, Dudley still figures to see his minutes drop Monday.
