Rashard Lewis has been gone from Orlando for nearly a year, but the memories that he has from his 3½ seasons with the Magic will stay with him for a lifetime – and many have already been commemorated with the banners that hang inside of the Amway Center. Lewis was back in the arena that he helped get built on Wednesday, wearing a Wizards T-shirt and warm-ups during shootaround. But he still has a deep connection with the Magic, stays in contact with several of his former teammates, and was even upset when the team lost in the first round to Atlanta Hawks last postseason.

Appreciating Rashard Lewis In His Return

Last year when the Wizards visited Orlando for the second time, Rashard Lewis was in unfamiliar surroundings. Lewis was locked out of the Magic locker. This was on purpose of course because Lewis was traded to Washington in December. He was no longer a member of the Magic, after putting the team over the top and helping lead the team to three straight Southeast Division championships...

Which Current Cat Would Help John Wall the Most?

When John Wall was drafted #1 overall by the Washington Wizards in the 2010 NBA Draft, many NBA scouts said the former UK All-American point guard was the greatest point guard prospect since Magic Johnson. After a rocky rookie year, it was thought Wall would make significant improvements coming into this year. While he has improved his defensive game, averaging 1.6 blocks per game...

Winless Wizards give players-only meeting a try

Maurice Evans says the winless Washington Wizards have a sense of entitlement like he's never seen before. The veteran called a players'-only meeting Thursday to address leadership issues on the only NBA team without a victory. The Wizards are 0-6 for the first time in franchise history and weren't competitive in an 18-point loss to the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night...

Wizards’ Jan Vesely getting closer to making his debut

Washington Wizards forwad Jan Vesely participated in three-on-three drills at the end of practice on Thursday, and the No. 6 overall pick said he’s getting close to making his debut as he heals from a hip ailment that has plagued him since the last day of training camp. Vesely dressed for but did not play in Wednesday night’s 103-85 loss to Orlando that dropped the Wizards to...

John Wall Devastates Greg Stiemsma, JaVale McGee Screams Quite Loudly

For a little guy, Washington Wizards' John Wall sure can bring down the house with some outstanding dunks. Case in point - Washington's visit to Boston to face the Celtics where Wall threw one down on Boston's big man Greg Stiemsma. And if you are like me and thought, " Who in the heck is this Greg dude?," well this will sure make you remember him going forward...

Wizards’ Ronny Turiaf Out 5-6 Weeks With Broken Hand

The Washington Wizards suffer a key loss Tuesday. Forward Ronny Turiaf will be sidelined 5-6 weeks after breaking his left hand. Turiaf played four games this season after being acquired from the Dallas Mavericks in December. Through four games this season Turiaf had averaged 1.5 points and 3.0 rebounds per game. He played 64 games for the Knicks coming off the bench last season...

Infographic: Hail! Hail! (Of) Bullets

With the franchise now knows as the Washington Wizards, and at one point known as the Chicago Packers, Zephyrs, or Baltimore, Capitol and Washington Bullets, I thought it might be fun to create a word cloud that showed the names of anyone who’s ever worn the teams’ jersey with their names relative to the length at which they were on the team. And while guys like Unseld...

6 Points is good enough for Wizards Player of the Game

Well, we will just put that on Trevor Booker's resume. No wonder Flip Saunders is always looking to get ejected in the first quarter. John Wall to request a trade in 2013 or 2014?

Wall Gets a Technical for Looking

The Wizards racked up technical fouls Monday night, including a pair that had coach Flip Saunders tossed from the game in the first quarter. But it was a technical called on John Wall that had us shaking our heads. Wall drove hard, dunked on Celtics center Greg Stiemsma and gave him a “who’s your daddy” stare down. The ref, apparently offended by the glare, whistled...

Roger Mason Jr. was ejected from a game because of a … ‘technical glitch?’

You may have missed it last Friday night, after all it was a game between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Washington Wizards and you do have your dignity to think of, but Wizards guard Roger Mason Jr.'s ejection from that Wizards loss came because of a very strange infraction. He was kicked out, apparently, for playing basketball. Oh, the humanity. And all the people. A "technical...

Wizards hold players-only meeting to address club's first 0-6 start

Maurice Evans says the winless Washington Wizards have a sense of entitlement like he's never seen before. The veteran called a players'-only meeting Thursday to address leadership issues on the only NBA team without a victory.

New York Knicks (2-4) vs. Washington Wizards (0-6) Open Thread

It is time to consider firing Mike D’Antoni after an embarrassing loss to the Charlotte Bobcats at Madison Square Garden. Also the Washington Wizards come into this game winless, which means Flip Saunders is not the right fit for his team. It’s hard to believe game number 7 of 66 in the regular season would be so critical, but both teams come into this contest desperate...
