Through the first 28 games of 2024-2025, the Washington Wizards have had just five reasons to smile. Jordan Poole gave them the biggest reason on Dec. 26 with a thrilling game-winner over the Charlotte Hornets. Poole, who ended with a team-high 25 points in the 113-110 win, was nonchalant about his performance after the game. […]

The Washington Wizards may be one of the worst teams in the NBA at the moment based on win-loss record, but that should not obscure the fact that Jordan Poole has been having quite the bounce-back season. And Poole continued his redemption arc on Thursday, as he drilled an incredible stepback three with 8.1 seconds […]

The Washington Wizards suffered yet another blowout loss as they continue their historically awful start to the season, but they actually competed with the mighty Oklahoma City Thunder for three quarters on Monday night. The biggest reason for that was Jordan Poole, who poured in a team-high 31 points in the 123-105 defeat. Poole also […]

It’s one thing to entertain fans with highlight-reel plays in professional basketball games, but the Washington Wizards and Mystics have a deeper mission. Through their parent company Monumental Sports and Entertainment, both organizations are sponsoring a local hoops league in a community that needs it most.

Washington Wizards wing Kyle Kuzma perplexed many NBA fans when he pushed back against being traded to the Dallas Mavericks last season. He opted to remain a focal point of a last-place squad rather than join a team he did not consider to be a genuine title contender. The Mavs handled the rejection exceptionally well, […]

However, No. 2-overall pick Alex […]

Celebrating and showboating after a nice play have always been a big part of the NBA, and Jordan Poole is especially known for that. However, famed TV personality Stephen A. Smith doesn’t think the Washington Wizards guard has earned the right. Poole won’t stop being himself, though. I asked Jordan Poole how he felt about Stephen […]

It’s only a matter of time before the Washington Wizards become active once again on the trade market.

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole has been under the spotlight for all of the wrong reasons, and this time, it’s courtesy of Stephen A Smith.

Russell Westbrook is a future Basketball Hall of Famer, highlighted by an NBA MVP award in 2017 coupled with a handful of seasons that saw him average a triple-double. While Westbrook has been an absolute beast on the court, an NBA championship remains elusive in his career, prompting the NBA MVP to jump from one […]

Sometimes, trash talk can backfire, as was the case for Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole when he was going against Payton Pritchard and the Boston Celtics.

The Washington Wizards are off to a historically pathetic start so far in the 2024-25 NBA season. They have a 3-19 and lost 16 in a row before defeating the Denver Nuggets at home. Despite Nikola Jokic having a historic performance, they somehow did enough to withstand an onslaught from the reigning MVP. However, one […]

The Washington Wizards are at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, posting a 2-18 record. This doesn’t exactly come as a surprise given the roster’s composition and the franchise’s dark history. In fact, it’s safe to say that the Kyle Kuzma and Jordan Poole experiment isn’t showing any signs of promise. But with the Cooper […]

Saturday night, Nikola Jokic scored a career-high 56 points against the Washington Wizards.

The Wizards had been on a 16-game losing streak before knocking off […]

The Washington Wizards had one of the worst months of any team so far this season, losing all of their games in November.

The Denver Nuggets and Washington Wizards battle as the Nuggets attempt to get back on track after a rough start to the year. It’s a good time to do it, as they play the Wizards with an abysmal 2-18 record. They are the worst team in the league and haven’t won a game since the […]

Bilal Coulibaly hasn’t had a perfect start to his sophomore season with the Washington Wizards, but he’s done enough to earn major recognition.

Washington Wizards rookie Alex Sarr is off to a promising start, as he’s tied for seventh in the NBA with 1.9 blocks per game.

The Washington Wizards are the worst team in the NBA in 2024-25, and that was on full display for the entire month of November.

The Milwaukee Bucks (9-9) have a ways to go before they regain their status as legitimate contenders in the Eastern Conference, but they are inching closer to that benchmark after compiling a five-game winning streak. Although Giannis Antetokounmpo did not play in Tuesday’s wild win versus the Miami Heat, he is the engine propelling this […]
