It has been just over a week since the NBA season ended. So now, let’s grade it.
Kevin Broom wrote a recap recently summing up the Washington Wizards’ 2024-25 season. I know, the preseason reports made it seem like the Wizards were destined to be among the worst NBA teams in history. In fact, the Wizards tied a franchise-record 16 game losing streak. Twice. But they ultimately finished 18-64, a three game improvement over their 2023-24 season.
Of course, the Wizards were going to have a rough season in the standings, but I agree with Kevin that Washington still made progress. Younger players like Alex Sarr, Bub Carrington and Kyshawn George received significant playing time early along with second year guard Bilal Coulibaly. It remains to be seen who stays long term. But for now, there’s a young core that should be part of the team’s future over the next several years.
I have a poll below so you can rate the Wizards’ performance this season. Vote in it and let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
