Fresh off the Redskins’ 21-point defeat at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks, thousands of Washingtonians have turned their attention across the Anacostia River to take solace in the city’s other playoff-bound franchise—the Washington Wizards. Often forgotten during the Redskins’ improbable run to the postseason, the Wizards were equally impressive in the NBA’s early going, compiling a 17-16 record—good for fourth place in the Eastern Conference—despite playing without star guard Gilbert Arenas for all but eight games.
