Breaking down the Wizards as they head toward the homestretch of the season

The Washington Wizards have been in a stretch of schedule challenging enough that my handy prediction machine thought they’d lose 16 in a row. Their losing streak currently sits at 14, and the Wizards aren’t likely to win either of their next two.

If they lose both, they’d tie the franchise record for consecutive losses at 16. At that point, they’re favored against the Charlotte Hornets and have a decent chance of steering out of the skid there.

If you want maximum entertainment value, and you’ve developed the capacity for deferred gratification, you might root for the Wizards to lose to Charlotte and keep on losing throughout March.
