The Washington Wizards will be looking to end a three-game losing skid on Tuesday against the lowly Detroit Pistons, but they are going to be without a key contributor. Kyle Kuzma picked up a knee injury on Sunday versus the Philadelphia 76ers and was listed as questionable for this matchup until Tuesday morning. He’s now […]

The Washington Wizards have had a teeter-totter season, managing to recover enough from a crushing 10-game losing streak in December to put themselves in position to sneak into the play-in tournament. And on Wednesday night, it seemed like the Wizards were well on their way to another victory after three quarters, especially after Kristaps Porzingis […]

Ladies and gentlemen, Kyle Kuzma just did the internet a solid this Tuesday night. The Washinton Wizards forward gave everyone something to have a good chuckle at when he celebrated a shot he thought was going in — Nick Young style. With the Wizards up by eight points with over eight minutes remaining on the […]

Washington Wizards star forward Kyle Kuzma missed Sunday’s game against the Milwaukee Bucks due to a knee injury. Unsurprisingly, without arguably their second-best player, the Wizards lost to the Bucks by a final score of 117-111.

The Washington Wizards haven’t had a great season, but with a 30-33 record, they are currently in possession of the tenth seed in the Eastern Conference, which would earn them a spot in the Play-In Tournament. However, they are going to have to keep on winning throughout the remainder of the season, and they have […]

The trading extravaganza leading up to 2023 NBA trade deadline saw many familiar faces return to familiar places. Included in that list is D’Angelo Russell, whom the Los Angeles Lakers acquired (along with Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt) in the long overdue Russell Westbrook trade.

The Portland Trail Blazers made a few moves prior to the trade deadline with an eye towards the future, sending former starting small forward Josh Hart to the New York Knicks for Cam Reddish and a first-rounder and dealing away Gary Payton II for five second-round picks.

Washington Wizards star forward Kyle Kuzma has missed three straight games due to an ankle injury. The Wizards have fared surprisingly well without arguably their second-best player — the team owns a 2-1 record since Kuzma’s been out, with wins over the Pacers and Hornets. Still, when the Wizards visit the Chase Center on Monday […]

The Washington Wizards are one of the more confusing teams in the NBA right now. Despite clearly having a team that is not a championship contender, the Wizards front office is building their team as if they will be in contention for a title. That mentality continued once again at the 2023 NBA trade deadline. […]

Russell Westbrook’s wife had time. Nina Westbrook blasted all the critics for branding the former Los Angeles Lakers point guard as a “locker room vampire” – a rant Kyle Kuzma agreed with. Kuzma called it “weirdo activity” for talking heads to hurl all that vitriol at a player for underperforming. Given the spotlight on the […]

In the madness that was the 2023 NBA trade deadline, the Washington Wizards made a minor move involving veteran Will Barton. But to Wizards’ forward Kyle Kuzma, Washington’s Barton decision wasn’t so trivial. The Wizards are working on a contract buyout for Barton, via ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Following that news, a fan on Twitter suggested […]

Kyle Kuzma knows a thing or two about fashion (or not?), and so when he saw LeBron James’ outfit for what could be a historic Los Angeles Lakers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder game, he knew his ex-teammate is making a statement. James is expected to break Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time scoring record on Tuesday against the […]

The Golden State Warriors haven’t had the 2022-23 season they were hoping for, as their 27-26 record sees them sitting in just eighth place in the Western Conference right now.

With the second half of the season fully underway and little room for error in the race for the postseason, the Washington Wizards, who at 24-28 are essentially tied with the Indiana Pacers at 25-29 for the 10th seed in the Eastern Conference standings and the final play-in spot, have a big game against the […]

Washington Wizards forward, and now fashion icon, Kyle Kuzma is turning heads again ahead of the team’s road meeting with the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday.

The Washington Wizards are looking for ways to improve in the Eastern Conference, which is always getting stronger. The Wizards currently hold a 24-26 win-loss record.

It has been an interesting past week or so for the Washington Wizards.

[…]

The Miami Heat didn’t have the start to the season that they were hoping for, but they are finally beginning to turn things around as we enter the second half of the season. With a 27-22 record, the Heat are sitting in sixth place in the Eastern Conference, and they are beginning to creep up […]

As expected, the announcement of the NBA All-Star Game starters has caused quite a stir among basketball fans everywhere.

Washington Wizards stud Kyle Kuzma was one […]

The Atlanta Hawks haven’t seen the 2022-23 season go the way they were expecting it to go. After pulling off a huge move for Dejounte Murray last offseason, the Hawks were expected to be one of the top contenders in the Eastern Conference, and for good reason. With Murray and Trae Young teaming up, Atlanta […]

It’s no secret that Spencer Dinwiddie, after signing a three-year, $62 million deal with the Washington Wizards, did not enjoy his time in D.C. at the very least. And the feeling is mutual; it’s apparent that Dinwiddie’s former teammates in Washington don’t like him one bit either. This much was evident in Kyle Kuzma’s reaction […]

The Washington Wizards continue to confound. They seem rather content with remaining one of the most decidedly mediocre teams in the entire NBA. Their latest trade – sending away Rui Hachimura, a 24-year old combo forward, to the Los Angeles Lakers for Kendrick Nunn and three second-round picks – may not be such a bad […]

The Chicago Bulls are currently where no NBA team wants to be, in no man’s land. With the 2023 NBA trade deadline looming on February 9, the Bulls sit at 21-24 and in 10th place in the East. The franchise needs to make some Bulls’ trade deadline moves, one way or another, to change their […]

After John Wall’s two major injuries a couple of years back, the Washington Wizards have not been able to regain their place as one of the legitimate contenders in the Eastern Conference. Bradley Beal has remained the common denominator of this roster, but he has not been the No. 1 guy that is needed for […]

Kyle Kuzma is having a career season in his second year with the Washington Wizards. He’s got all the motivation in the world to be as great as possible on the floor, as he is set to hit the free-agent market at the end of the 2022-23 NBA season. No one knows for sure whether […]

To say that Kyle Kuzma’s oversized pink sweater outfit has taken a life of its own would be an understatement at this point.

The Washington Wizards are only a game back from the 10th seed and final play-in spot despite their 18-24 record following a putrid 10-game losing streak earlier this year.
