Monday, Sam Cassell Jr. signed a letter of intent to play basketball at the University of Maryland.Cassell is the son of former NBA guard Sam Cassell (Florida State), who is now an assistant coach with the Washington Wizards.
Cassell played this season at Notre Dame Prep in Fitchburg, Mass.
He chose Maryland over the University of South Florida, Villanova and Florida State. Cassell says he picked Maryland because ''it's close to home so all my family and friends can see me play.''

It shouldn’t surprise you that Andray Blatche is throwing a “Grand Finale” party after the Wizard’s season finale on Thursday. A game that he won’t be playing in might we add.This man has challenged his Twitter followers to a fight, hosted “Lapdance Tuesday, wore Uggs, and whined openly about being booed. So there is just no way that this man would ever pass an opportunity...

WASHINGTON- When the losing really got bad for John Wall, he turned to another guy who once knew plenty about seeing his teams score listed on the right side.
That would be Oklahoma City forward and friend Kevin Durant, who won just 22 of his first 100 games in the NBA. Thats even worse than Wall, who won 26 of his first 100 games as Washingtons point guard.
I asked Kevin how he...

It’s safe to say JaVale McGee was the funniest, also read dumbest, NBA player when he balled for the Washington Wizards and Shaq and crew played homage to the hilarity to the JaVale show with his top 5 funniest plays. Needless to say, the JaVale McGee that plays in Denver is nothing similar to the guy that volleys [...]

Don't look now, but the Washington Wizards are the second hottest team in the league.
San Antonio always takes the limelight. Let's just get this out of the way so I can go on and rant.
The Wizards destroyed the Bobcats last night 101-73. John Wall looked like an NBA first-team point guard, Jan Vesely looked like the Czech Larry Bird, Kevin Seraphin continues to show why...

As many of us are aware now, Wizards general manager Ernie Grunfeld has just been inked to a contract extension.
While this news comes much to the dismay of the Wizards faithful, I’m finding myself not quite as horrified about Ted Leonsis’ decision to retain the mastermind that has been behind so many years of unwatchable basketball in Washington, D.C.
