The Washington Wizards didn’t play Monday or Tuesday, but they woke up Wednesday morning tied for the best record in the Eastern Conference.
At 7-3, the Wizards, the Miami Heat and the Chicago Bulls all share the East’s best record.
Due to tiebreakers, Washington is technically in third place behind the Heat and Bulls, respectively, although the Wizards have yet to play either team this season.
Philadelphia (8-4) held the top spot Sunday night, but the 76ers lost both games of a back-to-back on Monday and Tuesday.
Only one team in the NBA has a better record than Washington — the 9-1 Golden State Warriors.
