@GregFinberg @Deetalksalot I wish locking up the pick could have happened sooner. No one could have expected there would be 4 other awful teams which caused the Wiz to tank this hard so late into the season.

The Wizards can clinch a bottom-four record and guarantee they keep their top-8 protected pick if one of the following happens tonight: • Wizards lose (vs. CHI) • Kings win (@ GSW) • Jazz win (@ NOP)

@moseswade9 @Fullcourtpass @NBA__Courtside This is completely not true. You must not have watched the game. Refs gave him a very generous whistle, while Miami hacked to stop the clock. If they purposely foul him I hope they make sure he's hurt enough to where he can't shoot 1 free throw.

@Fullcourtpass @NBA__Courtside The Wizards attempted to "hack" Bam late in the game to prevent him from scoring from the field or to simply stop the clock, but the strategy backfired as he continued to knock them down from the stripe

Bam Adebayo on facing the Wizards tomorrow “Nobody wants to get 80 dropped on them… If they get extra physical, I’ll just shoot 40 free throws again.” (h/t @NBA__Courtside)

@GregFinberg I would prefer the Nets win. That would be a real win for the Wizards.

Another win-win for the Wizards today: Nets win = 1.0-game lead on BKN in win column for the 2nd-worst record. Kings win = 3.0-game lead on SAC in win column for a bottom-three record.

@Deetalksalot Please no.

Bradley Beal after signing with the Wizards in the offseason after seeing the new additions and opting out of his player option

@Wiz_Weekly I agree with you. We can only hope they don't AD an extension.

This will be an unpopular opinion amongst Wizards fans but there is no way I’m giving Trae Young a multi-year extension this offseason

@LTWizFan Sarr is your center. Davis doesn't want to play Center.

Chris Cenac Jr a Wizard. We gotta find a center of the future not day to davis.

@DCSportsBuzzz If the Wizards get a top 3 pick in the draft no one will care and Wizards fans will be happy we loss that game.

It’s interesting to see so many #Wizards fans just completely numb to embarrassment now. Giving up 83 points to Bam Adebayo will be something the Wiz will be clowned on for DECADES. Michael Ruffin lobbing the ball in the air to Mo Peterson for three has NOTHING on last night..

@BarstoolBigCat I don't respect it. When they started to intentionally foul with 3 minutes left just to break a record. That's not a record worth respecting.

Are we respecting Bam’s 83 or calling it Mickey Mouse? 83 is insane no matter how you do it. But I’m open to a #Debate

@jemelehill No it wasn't. Did you watch the 4th quarter?

What a performance by Bam Adebayo. I’m so glad they let him go for it. Second-most points in a single game in NBA history. Sensational.

@dramil13 That's Bull shit.

Way too much pearl-clutching on the TL about a record-breaking performance from Bam Adebayo. 83 points is incredible, regardless of how he got them. Basketball is supposed to be fun, and watching history take place was as fun as it gets

@Rachel__Nichols You work for Monumental and you're promoting that 4th quarter. Did you watch it?

So glad Spoelstra didn’t take Bam out early. Most coaches would, to protect the player from injury in meaningless minutes. I get it - but also it drives me crazy. I wish Steph had been allowed to stay in blowouts during the Warriors’ peak. Oh the records that would have fallen.

@franfraschilla @HoustonRockets @ElvinHayes44 Let me correct that. The great Washington Bullet...

This is not directed at any one player, I promise. I’ve gotten to know the great ⁦@HoustonRockets⁩ @ElvinHayes44⁩ in recent years. In 16 NBA seasons he missed a total of eight games. That boggles the mind. He’ll be watching from home tonight.

@GregFinberg I won't see that game.

The Wizards will have three players participating in tonight’s Rising Stars game: • Kyshawn George • Tre Johnson • Bub Carrington Carrington is filling in for the injured Alex Sarr. The game starts at 9 p.m. ET and will be streamed exclusively on Peacock.

@shomaristone @fox5dc @barnardfox5dc @AllisonPapson Very sad.

@GregFinberg I don't think Vukcevic will want to stay on a two-way. I'm hoping they eat Russell contract.

Wizards 2026-27 roster outlook: Trae Young Tre Johnson Kyshawn George Anthony Davis Alex Sarr Bilal Coulibaly Bub Carrington Will Riley Justin Champagnie D’Angelo Russell Jaden Hardy Cam Whitmore Jamir Watkins (two-way) Tristan Vukcevic (two-way) Lottery pick (top-8 protected)

@lockedonwizards I want Bagley for Dieng and one of OKC late 1st round picks.

are there any moves you want the wizards to do before the trade deadline?

@esidery I would like a trade with OKC. Dieng & Swap Houston's or Philly's 1st round with OKC's pick that the Wiz own. Outside of Dieng OKC doesn't have much to trade and they can't take back that much salary. Wiz get 30 games to check out Dieng plus a higher 1st round pick.

Teams have shown trade interest in Marvin Bagley III, who is producing his most efficient season ever for the Wizards. Washington appears open to moving Bagley’s veteran minimum contract for second-round draft capital. Bagley is averaging 10 points and 5.7 rebounds on a 66 TS%.

@MrCongee Certainly not Fears. I watched NO play. When he plays with Queen is doesn't start the offense, Queen does. He is standing in the corner. Plus he can't shoot and can't get to the basket.

There’s not 10 rookies better than Tre Johnson III

@KeithSmithNBA I don't have Peacock. I refuse to pay for 4 different services to watch the nba.

How do we feel about Peacock with the game analysts embedded with the teams? I'm still not sure how I feel about it. It's definitely interesting, but sometimes the call of the game feels a little disjointed.

@SamQuinnCBS I was wrong.

@SamQuinnCBS Dawkins is not taking on $49 million in salary without getting a lottery pick. The 20th pick and Trae doesn't get this trade done.

Trae Young to the Wizards? I wrote about why it makes sense. cbssports.com/nba/news/trae-…
