The Washington Wizards head to the Big Apple on Thursday night to take on the Knicks. The Wizards are in the midst of a 2-8 stretch and have won just seven games thus far after spending the offseason dismantling the roster as they begin an arduous rebuild. The Wizards continued making moves on Monday when they dealt Danilo Gallinari and Mike Muscala to the Pistons for forwards Marvin Bagley III and Isaiah Livers. The Wizards took on those same Pistons on Monday and fell 129-117 with a shorthanded roster. Tyus Jones led the Wizards with 22 points, seven assists, and six rebounds while Jordan Poole chipped in with 16 points.

“You could point to a number of things,” Washington’s Landry Shamet (11 points) said. “We had too many stretches where our attention to detail kind of fell off. Our attention to physicality.”

The Wizards' trying season rolls on with the team holding the second-worst mark in the NBA heading into Thursday night's action. The Wizards are 15th in the NBA in points per game this season. They are 12th in field goal percentage and just 20th in 3-point field goal percentage. The Wizards are 17th in 3-point field goals per game. Defensively, the Wizards are last in the league in scoring defense. They are 28th in field goal defense and 22nd in 3-point defense. The Wizards are also last in the league in total rebounds per game. They are 17th in turnovers per game as well.
