How the new-look Wizards should approach the 2026 NBA Draft

The pressure is on for the Washington Wizards to be competitive during the 2026-27 season after two bold moves to acquire perennial All-Star point guard Trae Young from the Atlanta Hawks and future Hall of Fame big man Anthony Davis from the Dallas Mavericks. On the flip side, both Young and Davis are currently dealing […]

Wizards Youngsters Defeat the First-Place Detroit Pistons

In basketball and narrative terms, the Wizards’ 126-117 win over the first place Detroit Pistons was fun. Entertaining game with extended runs for both teams, great plays from guys on both teams, and drama about the outcome to the very end. In terms of what the win means for the Wizards…not as much fun. I’ll […]

The Washington Wizards defeated the Detroit Pistons on Thursday night, 126-117.

This helped the Wizards still finish the first half with a 56-52 lead after the Pistons made an inevitable run. Still, […]

The Washington Post lays off staff and eliminates the sports section

Yesterday, The Washington Post laid off about one third of its newsroom. All departments were affected, but some sections were eliminated entirely. The sports department, which includes beat reporters for the Washington Wizards, Capitals, Mystics, Commanders, Nationals, Spirit, DC United — you get the picture, was eliminated entirely as we know it. If the local […]

The Wizards Bought Low on an Aging Superstar — and That’s the Point

In keeping with decades of Wizards tradition, they made a major transaction while I was otherwise occupied. Today, it was meetings and deadlines. In previous years, I’ve been on flights, at business events, or behind the wheel on long drives. My first reaction to the Wizards trading for Anthony Davis: “This is nuts.” Then someone […]

NBA Trade Deadline 2026 discussion

The NBA Trade Deadline Day for the 2025-26 NBA season is today at 3 p.m. ET. The Washington Wizards are already part of the shenanigans around trade deadline day, with Anthony Davis getting traded to Washington yesterday. And Trae Young was traded to DC just last month. Could something else happen today? We shall see! […]

Wizards Vanquished by New York Knicks

The Wizards traveled to New York where they took on a savvy, veteran, professional team and got vanquished, 132-101. The home town crowd enjoyed the New York-sized victory, chanting “MVP” when Jalen Brunson shot free throws in the third quarter. Editor’s Note: The game was played in DC.

Wizards Let the Kids Learn and the Bench Close Win vs. Kings

The Wizards swarmed defensively in the first half and built a 17-point lead, slacked off enough to give back the entire advantage, and then let the deep bench mob play the entire fourth quarter to escape with a 116-112 victory. If you’re worried about The Tank, yeah — be worried. It was Washington’s 13th win […]

Wizards vs Kings Recap: Washington beats Sacramento, 116-112

The Washington Wizards split the season series with the Sacramento Kings, winning this one in front of the home crowd on Sunday, 116-112. The Wizards were a little short handed tonight with no Tre Johnson and no Alex Sarr, but did have the return of Marvin Bagley III. Defensively, the Wizards started out with energy, […]

Wizards Obliterated as Lakers Turn Capital One Into Lob City

The Wizards took on the Los Angeles in the hostile road environment of…well…Washington, DC, and got stomped, 142-111. If you’re a Wizards fan — and you probably are if you’re reading this — fire this game into the sun. Shoot into a memory hole. Nothing to see. There’s stuff from this one the Wizards youngsters […]

Wizards vs. Lakers final score: Washington blown out in 142-111 loss

The Washington Wizards lost to the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night, 142-111 at Capital One Arena. One night after defeating the Milwaukee Bucks, there was certainly optimism about what Washington could do tonight against LA. However, the talent disparity showed. Luka Doncic led the Lakers with a triple double, scoring 37 points, dishing 13 […]

2026 NBA Draft Preview: AJ Dybantsa

I recently wrote that if the Washington Wizards are rewarded with the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, that they should not hesitate to take Kansas freshman guard Darryn Peterson. While I still believe that Peterson should be at the top of the Wizards’ big board, it would not be a disaster if […]

Defense, Boards, and Youth Close It Out as Wizards Beat Bucks

With a 109-99 victory over the spiraling Milwaukee Bucks, the Washington Wizards have their third two-game winning streak of the season. This one was an offensive struggle. Not in the sense that either team played well on offense — more like what the bricklaying did to my basketball sensibilities. The teams combined to miss 55 […]
