Wizards Surging: Better Than 15 Teams Over the Last 10 Games
Recent run and the Orlando win
The Washington Wizards picked up a 120–112 victory over the Orlando Magic, with C.J. McCollum leading the way. That win put them at 10–25 on the season and marked their sixth victory in the last 10 games — a stretch that has them outperforming 15 other teams over that span.
Teams they’ve been ahead of in that 10-game window include the Thunder, Cavaliers, Lakers, Nuggets, Knicks, Magic, 76ers, Bucks, Nets, Grizzlies, Pelicans, Mavericks, Hawks, Kings and Jazz.
Where they stand and what’s next
Despite the recent surge, the Wizards still sit seven wins behind the Hawks, who currently hold the 10th spot and the final play-in position. To stay within reach of a top‑10 finish they’ll need to keep this level of play up for the rest of the season — more consistency, fewer lapses and good health will be key.
If they can string together more wins like the one over Orlando and get steady production from their core, they’ll at least keep themselves in the conversation for the Play-In tournament as the season winds down.
