Exciting preseason performances and the overreactions that players' respective returns to televised basketball are going to breed is a relationship that's
The Wizards’ wildest era had to be when Gilbert Arenas was the supreme overlord of the locker room. Between pranks and off-court shenanigans, some stories the mid-2000s Wizards are too unhinged to believe.
The Washington Wizards’ 2026 first-overall pick, AJ Dybantsa, got off to a promising start in his NBA career as the team defeated the New York Knicks, 111-109, in their preseason opener.
On Thursday night, fans got their first opportunity to take a closer look at Anthony Davis in a Washington Wizards uniform, as he suited up for the team for the first time in an official capacity in a preseason contest against the New York Knicks.
The regular season is important, but NBA legends are made in the playoffs. More specifically, it's the Finals where the all-time greats have built their otherworldly reputations.
The Washington Wizards defeated the New York Knicks, 111-109 on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden. The win gives Washington a 1-0 record in the preseason.
The Washington Wizards open preseason with a big-time win over the New York Knicks. This game was a true test of what this team is all about. They went out and showed what they were made of, taking down the defending champs 111-109 in Madison Square Garden.
The Washington Wizards play the New York Knicks tonight at 7:30 p.m. ET. Watch the game on Monumental Sports Network. It’s been nearly half a month since we’ve see the Wizards, meaning the actual team (not the Summer League version), play basketball.
The Washington Wizards have only won 50 games over the last three NBA regular seasons, good for the worst mark league-wide over that span. In a vacuum, that would be more than enough for heads to start rolling up in the front office, but that won't be the case just yet in D.C.
Typically, the path to the NBA for most players is to spend at least a season in college to get high-level basketball and important development under their belts.
You can sort just about every member of the Washington Wizards' 2026-27 roster into one of two age tiers; the 10 hand-picked draftees (seven of which earned first-round distinctions) make up a significant portion of the group's depth chart, while the five players who are 28 years old and up occupy a different, more veteran-first niche.
The preseason games are officially starting for the Washington Wizards. They are traveling to the mecca of basketball, Madison Square Garden, to take on the defending champs, the New York Knicks.
The Washington Wizards are ready to embark on a new journey in basketball. After years of rebuilding, the team is finally ready to compete and win games in the East.
The Washington Wizards spent their long offseason advertising the organizational shift to come with numerous big-name acquisitions, uniting draft prizes, trade returns and feel-good signings into a roster that's already testing the outside viewing audience's familiarity with the squad's patient rebuild.
We already knew Anthony Davis and the Washington Wizards weren’t in a rush to figure out his next contract, as the two sides originally planned to wait through the first 20 or so games of the 2026-27 season before having serious extension talks.
Anthony Davis wants to be paid like a maximum-contract player on his next deal. The Wizards don’t appear inclined to do it. Washington is unlikely to offer Davis a contract at or near the max, according to David Aldridge and Josh Robbins of The Athletic.
Bilal Coulibaly was the first draft pick of the official rebuild, yet he is not the main course. AJ Dybantsa has that title, with Alex Sarr and Kyshawn George as the sides that complement the meal.
Anyone wondering how Alex Sarr planned to approach his 2025-26 sophomore season got their questions answered immediately during last year's media day. He heard the doubts surrounding his unrefined offensive game, a style mostly-predicated on his lack of interior strength and shooting touch.
Anthony Davis is getting ready for his first full season with the Washington Wizards, but serious questions are already emerging about whether the 10-time All-Star will remain in Washington beyond the February trade deadline.
The Washington Wizards are entering a new era. After starting the rebuild process in 2023, the Wizards threw themselves into the deep end and lost…a lot.
Few basement-dwelling franchises have worked harder to rebuild over the past few years than the Washington Wizards. That mojo continued through this past offseason.
Trae Young isn’t pretending to be something he’s not. The Wizards guard knows nobody has ever confused him with Gary Payton defensively. But Young believes his new surroundings in Washington may make life considerably easier on that end.
Washington Wizards guard Bub Carrington was not hiding his team’s tanking tactics from last season. Carrington, a former lottery pick himself, implied in a recent interview that the Wizards were playing for the ping-pong balls last season.
Anyone with even the most tangential interest in the NBA knows that the Washington Wizards have been one of the league's weaker teams for some time. Those with a more discerning eye might have even suspected that they were intentionally giving less than their best on the court for at least the last year or two.
Wizards big man Tristan Vukcevic has been diagnosed with a left hip impingement, the team announced today (via Twitter). According to the Wizards, Vukcevic will be a partial participant in training camp while going through the rehab process.
