The Washington Wizards have made a monumental leap in the standings recently. How high did they climb our ranks this week?
As of January 19, all 30 NBA teams have played at least 41 games, exactly half of the regular season.
While there has not been much change at the top of the standings in the first half compared to the end of the 2015-16 season -- the Cleveland Cavaliers and Toronto Raptors dominate the East, while the Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs still reign supreme out West -- there has been plenty of excitement in the Association so far.
