Wizards earn first round bye in 2016 Las Vegas Summer League Tournament, will face winner of Hawks vs. Kings on Thursday

The Washington Wizards’ dramatic win on Tuesday afternoon was enough to vault the Wizards to the seventh seed and a first round bye in the Las Vegas Summer League Tournament, which begins on Wednesday.

Washington will get to rest and take on the winner of Wednesday’s game between the 10th seeded Hawks (who Washington lost to on Sunday) and the 23rd seeded Kings on Thursday, July 14 at 4 p.m. EST.

If the Wizards win on Thursday, they’ll advance to face the quarterfinals which begin on Saturday. If they lose, they will play in the consolation round on Friday to complete their Summer League journey.
