Washington Wizards don’t have a lot of things to be thankful for, but we found five underappreciated aspects about the team this Thanksgiving.

The Washington Wizards are 4-9 and they’re currently second to last in the Eastern Conference standings.

Things haven’t gone according to plan for Scott Brooks‘ team. The bench has failed to produce, the team is capped out and the schedule isn’t getting any easier going forward.

Realistically, the Wizards are going to have a difficult time climbing out of the early season hole.

But there’s still a lot of season left to be played. So despite the troubles, we do have things to be thankful for.

Before we get into the top-five things, I want to thank you guys for continuing to read our work and supporting us. We know that the Wizards fanbase isn’t very large, yet it’s the most passionate group of fans in the league.

Happy Thanksgiving.
