Washington Wizards
Wish: Hope for KD and a playoff run
The season for the Washington Wizards began so promising. They were the hot team that nearly everyone pegged as the “next” team to challenge the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference. After nearly making a run to the conference finals, it’s pretty safe to say that, at 13-14 on the season, the Wizards have disappointed thus far.

What the Wizards need this holiday is hope. Hope that they can replicate last season’s playoff success and/or hope that they can jump back into the running for Kevin Durant next summer.
Right now, neither of those things seem likely.
