The Wizards host the Bucks at 7 p.m. tonight. Watch the game on NBC Sports Washington. Listen to it on Federal News Radio 1500 AM or on the Wizards mobile app.
Washington is coming off an 8-6 January. If you are in the camp that the Wizards need to just get as many wins as possible, then this was a promising month. Washington was above .500 last month and they are still within striking distance of a playoff berth. Also, the Wizards defeated the Bucks 113-106 in their last meeting on Jan. 11.
The Wizards want to keep their positive momentum going even though they lost two of their last three games, including one on the road to the Cleveland Cavaliers. But this team has a knack for not showing up against bottom feeders and “punching above their weight” against better ones.
We’ll see how this game goes, and the Wizard should at least hold their own against Giannis Antetokoumpo and the Bucks. Go Wiz.
