The Washington Wizards were projected to be the one of the worst teams in the National Basketball Association during the 2023-24 season. It's a rebuild. No time for panic.

2029 first-round pick
Two second-round picks
i maintain that cam whitmore can pass the ball, as much as he doesn't like doing it. some wild flashes of vision off of the dribble going back to his time in eybl
One thing to note:
Mike Muscala has taken over the backup center role from Danilo Gallinari
Gallo wasn’t listed on the tonight’s injury report, so it looks like he’s just getting a regular “DNP - Coach’s Decision.”
A much-needed change that should’ve happened a while ago
One reason @kylekuzma received the @nbacares Community Assist Award for Nov. is due to his jail reform work focused on incarcerated women. This is such a unique cause that is rarely addressed so I asked Kuz why he is focusing on it. Very admirable response!

Calling the Wizards rebuild horrendous so far through less than half a season because of two trades kinda misses the forest for the trees for me.
Individually you could look at the Porzingis and CP deal as failures (I guess?) But in aggregate they've made a ton of progress
One of the coolest moments of my life. Bought this shirt months ago for tonight’s game. Showed it to bilal during warmups he literally went 😲 hahaha.
He promised me he’d sign it after the game. Kept his word. I can tell he’s such a genuine and kind kid.
Thank you @Bilaal_6. 🧙♂️
We'll see way more coverage of his tweet yesterday than this but I appreciate him doing stuff that actually matters in the world! Awesome to have one of the good guys in the league on the team
