    Buy low, play now: Why NBA teams should be begging the Wizards for Justin Champagnie (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Back in May, I asked if the end of the tanking era would usher in minutes for Justin Champagnie. My thinking on Champagnie hasn’t changed, but my answer has. Which is to say, I still think Champagnie is an average NBA player, and that if the Wizards hold an open competition for forward minutes, he might just take minutes from more ballyhooed teammates. But while the Brian Keefe and Will Dawkins say they’re excited about the internal competition at training camp, I suspect it’s going to be manage

    The Doppelganger Machine finds Ayton at a career crossroads (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    With training camp opening tomorrow, there’s time for one or two trips on The Statistical Doppelganger Machine. Next up: the guy who figures to be the team’s backup big man this season, DeAndre Ayton. According to Basketball-Reference and other online sources, it only feels like Ayton has been in the NBA forever. Somehow, this will be only his ninth season. Somehow, he’s still just 28 years old. Since going first overall in the 2018 NBA Draft — before players like Luka Doncic, Trae Young, Jaren

    When it comes to Anthony Davis, the Doppelganger Machine sees legends (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The big things that came to mind when I sat down to analyze Anthony Davis were negatives: he misses a lot of games, and he’s aging — he’ll turn 34 in March. As Southern Utah University sports economist and author of Wages of Wins David Berri has written, NBA players age like milk. A few other things stand out about Davis, though — mainly how frigging terrific he is when he does play. For example, Davis has six seasons with a PPA of 200 or higher. That’s six more than the Washington Wizards/Bulle

    Half the Wizards roster will be under 23. That’s why they might be really good. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Wizards will be better in 2026-27 than they’ve been the previous three seasons. Low bar, I know. But at least they were trying to be bad unlike a previous season almost 20 years ago where the basketball operations group were tasked by ownership with competing for a championship and assembled a roster that was so bad the only sane move was to trade away all the veterans. They finished the season 19-63. The official over/under betting line is 33.5 wins, which seems perfectly calibrated for wag

    Are the Wizards deep? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Multiple times this summer, I’ve heard it claimed by fans, pundits, and current/former coaches, players, and front office types that the Wizards are deep. My instinctual reaction is skepticism. I delved into statistical analysis in part because so much of what I heard from the “experts” on TV when I was a kid didn’t seem accurate. I’d watch Player X (names redacted to protect the innocent) would grab a rebound, and I’d hear the “analyst” (almost always a former player) make a claim like, “Player
