Wizards Toughest Match-Ups For For The Remainder Of This Season

The end of the 2022-2023 NBA season is quickly approaching with a little over a month left in the regular season.

The Washington Wizards have a packed schedule for the remainder of March with one of their four back to back match-ups already in the books, this month will definitely put the team's endurance to the test!

Last night the Wizards faced the number 1 team in the East, The Milwaukee Bucks with 3x NBA All-Star Captain Giannis Antetokoumpo leading the charge. The game came down to the wire but the Bucks pulled out the win with the final score 111 to 117.

The team now gets one day of rest before their next back to back but this one presents a different challenge as the team will be traveling from DC to Detroit then Detroit back to DC to play the Hawks that following night. Despite The Pistons being the last team in the East, they have a lot of potential with their young hungry roster. Forward Marvin Bagley lll has shown he can be a threat on both ends of the court and the Atlanta Hawks are only a few spots ahead of the Wizards in the East so winning these games is pivotal.

On March 12th The Wizards play the Philadelphia 76ers, who currently sit in the 3rd spot in the eastern conference. The team is deep but has suffered injuries to key players which could play in the Wizards advantage. The Wizards took home the win in their last meeting on December 27, 2022 where both teams were fully stacked.

The Denver Nuggets come to DC on the 22nd of March. The Nuggets are the number 1 team in the west and have no plans on slowing down. This game will be a test of the big men as The Joker continues to wreck havoc on his opponents. He recently achieved 100 Career Triple-Doubles, making him the 6th player in NBA History to reach this milestone!

With a recent visit from the Raptors ending in each team winning one of the two, the mistakes are still fresh and The Wizards will have a chance to correct them as the make their way to Toronto on the 26th to play the Raptors once again.

Last but definitely not least is the match-up against the Boston Celtics on March 28th. Unfortunately their first two meetings on October 30th and November 27th, resulted in losses for the Wizards, this final game between the two in the regular season definitely has a bullseye on it.
