Biggest Weakness: Attack The Basket
The Wizards have one of the best backcourts in the NBA, but yet they average only 21 free throw attempts per game. John Wall, with his driving ability, only gets to the line three times per game. He must attack the basket more.
Same goes for Bradley Beal, who has a decent perimeter game but now must focus on putting the ball on the floor and drawing fouls. Marcin Gortat is another player that tends to shy away from the physical play.
In order for the Wizards to take that next step, they must learn to make their opponents pay by getting to the charity stripe.
