There was no coming back again for Luka Dončić. After already having his 16th technical foul rescinded once during the team’s recent road trip, lightning did not strike twice in the same place. On Saturday, the NBA announced a one-game suspension for Luka for receiving his 16th technical foul against the Nets on Friday night. […]
When the Wizards played the Spurs in late December, Jamir Watkins spent a bunch of time guarding Victor Wembanyma. Wemby faces physical, dogged defenders who get up under him all the time. Watkins seemed to present a new challenge. The Wizards’ second round rookie mirrored Wemby’s lanky dribble and looked ready to rocket into the […]

In our Washington Wizards survey, we asked you whether you believed the team would ultimately clinch an NBA record 29 game losing streak.

The best things from the Wizards loss to the Golden State Warriors were these: What most interested me in this game was the solid performance of Pat Spencer, who was scouted and signed by the former Wizards management team led by Tommy Sheppard. Spencer played well in the G-League and summer league, and my statistical […]

Yesterday, the Washington Wizards defeated the Utah Jazz to end their 16-game losing streak. That’s the good news. However, there’s an unfortunate trend that we have also seen along the way.

The Washington Wizards ended their 16-game losing streak with a resounding 133-110 win over the people wearing Utah Jazz uniforms. Sure, the Wizards and Jazz have been (and still are) engaged in strategic losing, both teams had many, many of their main players out with injuries and “injuries,” but it’s been 33 days since Washington’s […]
The Utah Jazz likely had this game circled on the calendar for some time. It’s the matchup of two ultra tankers facing off, and the prize for losing was all-important playoff positioning.

Just last year, this rivalry was so legendary that Adam Silver had to personally step in and punish these teams by giving them the mathematically worst outcome on draft lottery night. The embers are still in the air, but these organizations are no longer the juggernauts of Tankathon. They’re retired, choosing to pave their own […]
