Yesterday, the Hawks took action to fill their third and final two-way spot with the signing of Keshon Gilbert. The report broken by Jake L. Fischer of the Stein Line substack: Caleb Houston was recently converted from his two-way deal to a standard contract. In that space is now Gilbert, who played for the Wizards […]
The Wizards lost another one — this time a reasonably competitive game (at least for a while) against the Orlando Magic. The final margin: 17. That 17-point final gap sounds big for the words “reasonably competitive,” and those words in this case are not intended to convey the idea that the Wizards ever had a […]
The Washington Wizards lost to the Orlando Magic, 126-109 on Tuesday night on the road. The first half of this game was a rather even affair with Washington own 57-54. Neither team shot particularly well from three with the Magic shooting 1-of-13 from the line. There was a chance that the Wizards could win if […]

Last night’s loss by the Washington Wizards — this time to the Houston Rockets — seems from the numbers like it was at least a somewhat entertaining game. They fell behind by as much as 19, then went ham in the fourth quarter to trim the final margin to just five. Now, it was one […]
Washington Wizards fans adore Justin Champagnie for his gritty effort and impressive rebounding. They’ve also gotten to know Alondes Williams, Kadary Richmond and Skal Labissiere — three players who grinded their way to the NBA and signed with Washington this season. The one thing all four of those players have in common: They’re represented by […]

The Washington Wizards faced the Houston Rockets on Monday night at Capital One Arena.

Washington Wizards guard Trae Young will make his Wizards debut Thursday against the Utah Jazz, per ESPN’s Shams Charania. Young, 27, was acquired by Washington on Jan. 5 in a trade that sent CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert to the Atlanta Hawks. The All-Star guard had yet to appear for the Wizards as he nursed […]
The Houston Rockets head to the nation’s capital to take on the Washington Wizards tonight. With Washington’s injury list (see below), Washington’s mascot G-Wiz might have to play some minutes for the home team. He’s still recovering from the cheap shot that Jaxson Hayes gave him earlier this season. March is generally the month where […]

The Wizards keep doing the improbable this season. Last night, for example, they shot 47.1% from three, were +21 on the scoreboard from deep (16 made threes to Toronto’s 9), and lost by nine. Once again, it wasn’t that close. Bright side: the Wizards need to keep on losing, and at least they made the […]
The Washington Wizards returned home on Saturday for a contest against the Toronto Raptors. Washington led by three at halftime but succumbed to Toronto’s second-half surge in its 134-125 loss. Washington made five of its first eight 3-pointers to begin the game and shot 7-13 from deep in the opening quarter. Jamir Watkins, who didn’t […]

The Tuesday night loss to the Atlanta Hawks was bad. The loss last night was worse. The Wizards fell behind quickly, made a first quarter run when the Hawks slacked off early, and then got their doors blown off. Again. I’ve now written several versions of a sentence that communicates the idea that the competitive […]
For the second time this week, the Atlanta Hawks squared off against the hapless Washington Wizards in front of their home fans at State Farm Arena. After beating Washington handily on Tuesday, Atlanta delivered an equally emphatic 126-96 victory last night — though with Jalen Johnson (left hip contusion) and Nickeil Alexander-Walker (left foot sprain) […]
The Washington Wizards lost to the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday, 126-96. The first half of this game was tough to watch. Washington allowed Atlanta to head into halftime with a 76-56 lead. I get that the Wizards aren’t going to be very good this season. But that margin and the total number of points the […]
Not going to lie, this was such an uncompetitive game against a clearly tanking team that I have nothing to recap. Corey Kispert had 22 in the first half and a career-high (!) 33 points overall. Newbies CJ McCollum and Jonathan Kuminga added 25 and 17 respectively. Please discuss the win amongst yourself.
The Atlanta Hawks (29-31) try to make it a clean sweep of a home-and-home against the Washington Wizards (16-41) without Jalen Johnson or Nickeil Alexander-Walker.
