Otto Porter has not always looked like himself during the Washington Wizards’ first-round playoff series with the Toronto Raptors. He’s tallied over 30 minutes in four of the first five games, but he doesn’t look as comfortable moving off the ball on offense, and he’s fallen behind Toronto’s ball-handlers at times on the other end.

After playing a season in the Chinese Basketball Association, Ty Lawson has found his way back on an NBA roster for the 2018 playoffs. [tweet https://twitter.com/BR_NBA/status/984440301690478592?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw] He averaged 25.5 points, 6.5 assists and 4.6 rebounds for the season including 55 points in his final game in China. Lawson likely won’t get much if any opportunity [...]

The Washington Wizards are playing their worst basketball of the 2017-18 season and at the worst time. Losers of eight of their last 10 games, they have fallen from 4th place in the eastern conference to 8th over the past month and look to have plenty of issues on and off the court. One of [...]

For a while it looked like the Wizards were just fine without their All-Star point guard John Wall. They were playing over .500 basketball and competing for home court in the eastern conference first round of the playoffs. Lately they have been in a slump though as they have lost 8 out of 12 games [...]

With knee surgery putting All-Star point guard John Wall on the shelf for the next month to month and a half, the Wizards are in dire need of some depth at the point guard position. Apparently they may be setting their sights on a guy who has been playing in China and is a former [...]

With the Washington Wizards in closer proximity to the Eastern Conference’s ninth-place Detroit Pistons than the second-place Toronto Raptors, it stands to reason John Wall’s six-to-eight-month absence will have them working the phones and dangling their best assets in pursuit of an impact trade. Or, you know, maybe not. Despite losing Wall, the Wizards are [...]

The NBA’s injury hits just keep on coming. Over the past five days alone, the New Orleans Pelicans have lost DeMarcus Cousins for the year; the Oklahoma City Thunder have lost Andre Roberson for the season; the Memphis Grizzlies announced Mike Conley wouldn’t play again in 2017-18; the Charlotte Hornets may have lost Marvin Williams [...]

John Wall isn’t buying this business about certain members of the Washington Wizards not liking him or Bradley Beal. Okay, well, he’s at least not buying that he’s disliked in the locker room. From The Washington Post‘s Candace Buckner: “I’ve never had a teammate say he didn’t like me. If it’s true, nobody would be man [...]

The Los Angeles Clippers got a much needed home win over the Washington Wizards on Saturday night, 113-112. Not without some controversy though. The Wizards got the ball trailing by one with 1.2 seconds left and inbounded the ball to Bradley Beal, who made what appeared to be a game-winning shot, but after the buzzer [...]

John Wall probably won’t be rejoining the Washington Wizards on schedule. Though he was initially expected to miss about two weeks after receiving treatment for his left knee, the team now expects him to be out a little while longer, according to The Washington Post‘s Candace Buckner (via HoopsHype): John Wall has progressed to participating in half-court [...]
