The Washington Wizards will take on the Golden State Warriors tonight at 10 p.m. ET. You can watch the game on NBC Sports Washington (or Bay Area if you’re in California).
Tonight will feel sort of strange assuming Beal plays tonight despite a nerve injury in his hip. It wasn’t long ago when the Wizards’ back of Beal and former point guard John Wall were one of the rising star backcourts along with Golden State’s Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson.
Now, Wall is with the Houston Rockets who are doing poorly to say the least. And though Russell Westbrook has taken Wall’s place, it’s not the same feeling of optimism we had in 2015.
