The Wizards take on Brooklyn Monday night looking to pick up their 40th win of the season. If accomplished, this would be the first time since the 2004-2008 stretch where the Wizards won 40+ games in three straight seasons.
The Nets are a mess. After making the playoffs last year, they currently sit at 21-59, the second-worst record in the Eastern Conference. The Nets have already shut down their two best players, Brook Lopez and Thaddeus Young for the season.
The Wizards are looking to carry their momentum after the win over Charlotte on Sunday.
