Nikola Jokic is secretly having a historically great season

Nov 11, 2024 | therabbitholeadmin.com | Gibson Lowenberg

Nikola Jokic has been the best player in the world for several years now, and it hasn’t really been close. Yet, the three-time MVP is putting up the best stats of his career this season and has outplayed even his own expectations.
Is it time for the Washington Wizards to worry about Alex Sarr?

Jul 17, 2024 | therabbitholeadmin.com | Gibson Lowenberg

The 2024 NBA Summer League is now in full swing and while some players have come out swinging like Reed Sheppard and Bub Carrington, some have started a little more sluggish. Alex Sarr, second overall pick for the Washington Wizards, for example, has been abysmal on the offensive end of the floor. The 19-year-old averages 6.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 blocks, and 0.7 steals per game on 19.5% from the field (11.8% from three). It hasn’t been great.

Apr 28, 2024 | therabbitholeadmin.com | Gibson Lowenberg

The Minnesota Timberwolves have won a playoff series for the first time since 2004. In the first sweep in franchise history, the Wolves took down the Phoenix Suns led by Devin Booker, Kevin Durant, and Bradley Beal. More impressively, they did it while being favored to lose. Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Phoenix Suns were favored at -140 to win the series. Despite the odds and many fans picking Phoenix, the Timberwolves prevailed. Everything the Suns did was counteracted by the Timberwolves.

As training camp rages on, we are beginning to see more and more glimpses into how the players are doing. One player from the Washington Wizards has seemingly stood out from his peers at his position early on and may have already earned the starting nod. Bilal Coulibaly, seventh overall pick in this year’s draft, has shown his work ethic in the past as he went from the U21 league at the beginning of his 2022-’23 campaign to being the second-best player on one of the Finals teams at the end.
National media continues to sleep on Washington Wizards and Jordan Poole

Oct 6, 2023 | wizofawes.com | Gibson Lowenberg

Another week, another slew of major platforms forgetting that Jordan Poole averaged 20 points per game on a winning team last season while still being a young player. Even worse, the Washington Wizards continue to be ranked below the Charlotte Hornets who have a long list of issues behind the scenes heading into the new NBA season. The Wizards have been left behind on lists all offseason, being ranked last place in many lists where they are far from the worst in the league.

As many likely predicted, Jordan Poole was one of the primary names thrown around throughout the day.

Why trading for Buddy Hield would be a colossal mistake for the Cavaliers

Sep 22, 2023 | kingjamesgospel.com | Gibson Lowenberg

The Cleveland Cavaliers have needed wing shooting since the beginning of last season when it became clear that Isaac Okoro still had not taken that next step. Conveniently enough, Buddy Hield and the Indiana Pacers are working together to find a trade partner (subscription required), per a report from Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium. The problem is, nothing is ever that simple.
Dwight Howard could be the missing piece for the Golden State Warriors

Sep 22, 2023 | bluemanhoop.com | Gibson Lowenberg

Among a long list of names thrown around as potential suitors for the final roster spot, the Golden State Warriors have most recently and substantially linked with future hall of famer Dwight Howard. After spending all of last season playing in Taiwan, it seems as if the 37-year-old is ready to make his NBA return. I’ve long been a supporter of the Warriors signing Howard for years.

Sep 22, 2023 | wizofawes.com | Gibson Lowenberg

Following an eventful offseason filled with trades and small victory signings, the Washington Wizards are left with an important question regarding their roster: who will take the final two-way slot on the roster? With the NBA expanding available two-way roster spots to three players this season compared to the previous two, there is more room for flexibility on various rosters. However, there are some teams like the Wizards who have yet to fill their final roster slot.

Sep 21, 2023 | wizofawes.com | Gibson Lowenberg

As recently announced by the Washington Wizards official X (formerly Twitter) account, they have signed Chase Audige to an Exhibit 10 contract. A move that will likely have little to no impact on the season, but still continues a wildly successful offseason. An Exhibit 10 contract is a deal made between a franchise and an unsigned player, usually with little to no NBA experience, where they earn the right to compete for a two-way spot during training camp.
