Washington Wizards Win-Loss Record Prediction Updated by Bleacher Report
Nobody expected the Washington Wizards to win a lot of games this year but there is even less optimism now than ever.
At the beginning of the season some thought that the combination of guard Jordan Poole and forward Kyle Kuzma would be enough to get the Wizards some wins.
In fact, Bleacher Reports original prediction had Washington winning 25 games.

Right now, though the Wizards are only on pace for 12 wins which would be tied the 5th lowest in NBA history.
The new Bleacher Report predictions have an updated win-loss record of 15-67 for Washington.
15 wins is more on track but still more than the pace the Wizards are on currently.
They also note that Washington could get worse at the trade deadline possibly moving on from guard Tyus Jones and forward Kyle Kuzma.

Seeing Kuzma move would be difficult, this new front office has shown it believes in him with the extension but if they want to completely blow it up and play only the youngest guys, they could get some good assets back for him.
Kuzma's services would certainly be coveted by contending or fringe contender teams.
The biggest problem getting to 15 wins for the Wizards is going to be their issues winning in close games.
In clutch moments Washington has been really bad and they have some huge blown leads also.
The only game the Wizards have won in the last month was against the Detroit Pistons, who are the only team with a worse record than Washington.
15 wins is a good expectation, but fans should be paying more attention to the improvements being made versus the results.
