Team Outlook:
The Washington Wizards enter this season quietly as one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference. Due to injury misfortunes, the Wizards haven’t be able to have their two best players in John Wall and Bradley Beal play a full season together under head coach Scott Brooks. As Brooks enters his third season with the Wizards, this season will be of huge importance.
The Wizards for the last couple seasons have been a team on the brink of Eastern Conference greatness. However, injuries to their two stars have derailed each of the previous two campaigns. The Wizards have a very deep and talented roster that can provide a problem for any team in the Eastern Conference.
The Off-Season additions of Dwight Howard, Jeff Green, and Austin Rivers could prove very valuable for the Wizards in 2018-19.
Team Record Predictions : 50 – 32
