Paint-Packing Defense Flusters Bucks in Narrow Wizards Road Win

Happy New Year! The Washington Wizards closed out 2025 with a fun and somewhat unexpected road win against Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks.

Wizards Can’t Rebound, Fall to Phoenix Suns

The Wizards’ defensive game plan against the Phoenix Suns was straightforward: make life tough for Devin Booker, and make Someone Else generate offense. The plan worked — Booker needed 23 shots to score 22 points and produced an offensive rating (individual points produced per possession used x 100) of just 97 (league average is 115.8). […]

Rebounds Power Wizards Second Straight Win

In one of the more persistent Wizards trends of the past few decades, the team did something fun, interesting or meaningful when I was otherwise occupied and unable to watch or respond. Over the years, the Wizards have made signs, trades, or other major personnel moves (front office and coaching staff included) when I’ve been […]

The Mystics’ 2025 season can be characterized by front office realignment

Yesterday, we talked about one theme that stood apart with the Washington Wizards, specifically roster turnover. Today, we’ll do the same with the Washington Mystics.

The year 2025 is coming to a close in less than a week. And yesterday’s Washington Wizards win got me thinking for a second because they beat the Toronto Raptors soundly, 138-117 with Kyshawn George having a big night.

NBA Christmas Day 2026 viewing guide: Ranking all five games in a beautiful day of hoops

The real start of the NBA season — Christmas Day — is upon us, and the Wizards were understandably not invited to participate in the festivities. The NBA’s Christmas games are reserved for the (theoretically) most compelling league-wide matchups, and few reasonable people would have predicted a record much better than Washington’s current 5-23 mark […]
