It takes time for historically bad sports teams to change their reputation, and the Washington Wizards are experiencing that now. The Wizards will experience their first full season with Trae Young in addition to debuting Anthony Davis and number one overall pick AJ Dybantsa. ESPN ranked Washington 22nd, five spots behind the Utah Jazz. Finally, NBA.com ranked the Wizards 12th in the Eastern Conference, two spots below the last Play-In seed. But the Wizards will make pundits look silly if their young core makes a developmental leap.
