The dynamic at the Verizon Center is changing for the better
Despite the team’s unexpected success this season, the Wizards are still among the worst teams in the NBA when it comes to attendance. They’ve averaged 16,075 fans per game this season, ranking them 23rd-best in the league. The numbers get worse when you consider that the Verizon Center has one of largest seating capacities in the NBA. Washington ranks 27th in terms of how much of the arena is filled each night. The only teams that have done a worse job of filling their arenas are the Timberwolves, Nuggets, and Pistons, who are all below .500 this season.
