NBA: WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE WASHINGTON WIZARDS?



In today’s article were going to look into one of the biggest disappointments of the NBA this season so far, the Washington Wizards. The Wizards came into this season with high expectations as John Wall has returned to full health, they’ve added a good Center in Dwight Howard, some nice depth players like Austin Rivers and Jeff Green in the summer however it seems like they’ve turned in a completely wrong direction as their inability to put it together on the court has caused them to start the season 13-21 which is only an 11th seed and it’s already Christmas! If this continues there could be a real possibility of them missing the Playoffs completely. So what went wrong with the Wizards this season so far?
