Long time no talk.

Hope everyone is having a great week! We’re only a week away from the Wizards’ first scrimmage against the Denver Nuggets.

The Wizards hit the practice floor on Tuesday, notably playing halfcourt 5-on-5 at the end of practice. Before practice got started, Shabazz Napier made rookie Rui Hachimura sing happy birthday to him in Japanese. The team gets a kick out of Hachimura’s (surprisingly) great singing voice and the Japanese song itself is very catchy.

It was an early morning practice, starting at 9:00 A.
