Cam Whitmore trade puts Wizards in the spotlight with everything to prove

The Washington Wizards are no stranger to criticism, especially throughout recent years.

Washington has been the laughing stock of the NBA for most of the last couple decades and even during the John Wall and Bradley Beal era, even at their best they weren't good enough.

Regardless of the talent on the roster, the Wizards have seemingly just never been able to take the steps necessary to build a contending team in the DMV.

As a result, Washington finally faced the hard truth and came to realization that if the organization ever hoped to be back contending at the top of the Eastern Conference, their best bet would be hitting the restart button.
