    Craig Stouffer

    Published: Fri, Apr 12, 2013

    The motivation that spurred the Wizards to make a run from the bottom of the NBA standings to just outside a playoff spot is gone. Fading hopes of a last ditch push for ninth place in the Eastern Conference were erased in their final home game of the season, a 96-87 loss to the Philadelphia...

    Updated: Thu, Apr 11, 2013

    Forward is hampered by abdominal injury Martell Webster probably has done enough to convince the Wizards to bring him back in 2013-14. But it won't help matters if he misses the final three games of the season. The pain of a nagging abdominal strain forced Webster to remove himself in the...

    Craig Stouffer

    Published: Wed, Apr 10, 2013

    There was more heat outside on a rare 90-degree day in April day than there were Miami Heat players in uniform. But summer weather and the roster equivalent of a summer league team was too much for the Wizards, who snapped their nine-game winning streak at home in a 103-98 loss before a...

    Craig Stouffer

    Updated: Tue, Apr 9, 2013

    It wasn't a surprise, but Victor Oladipo made it official. Cody Zeller didn't have the best season at Indiana this year. Just as Oladipo rocketed from a supporting role to All-American to overtake Zeller, he made his jump from the Hoosiers first, too, declaring for the NBA Draft on Tuesday....

    Craig Stouffer

    Updated: Mon, Apr 8, 2013

    Up next: Hot Knicks at Garden The timing could be better. The Wizards (29-48) face four playoff teams in their final five games of the season, starting Tuesday against the hottest team in the NBA, the New York Knicks (50-26). They then will come back to the District on Wednesday to host the...

  • Lionard Pajoy just part of D.C. United's offensive woes

    Craig Stouffer

    Updated: Mon, Apr 8, 2013

    There is plenty of blame to go around for a D.C. United team that has produced just two goals in five games, tied for second fewest in MLS. But Lionard Pajoy's struggles in front of the net are the most glaring, not only because he's United's starting target forward but also because they...

    Craig Stouffer

    Updated: Sun, Apr 7, 2013

    The members of the 1977-78 Washington Bullets returned to the District over the weekend to celebrate the 35th anniversary of their NBA championship. But they aren't in unanimous support of the late season run by the current Wizards, the kind of stretch that has become as much of a tradition...
