If you think the Detroit Pistons are bad, the Washington Wizards certainly give them the win as the worst team in the NBA this season.
Washington hasn’t won a game since Jan. 29 and has lost 16 straight despite some near misses in February. The Wizards currently have the worst record in the NBA.
Bookmakers at FanDuel Sportsbook are wondering if Washington will win again before the regular season ends and NBA bettors can place their bets.
Additionally, NBA sports bettors especially in North Carolina should use FanDuel NC promo codes to get the most out of their basketball bets.
The Wizards’ next chance to win is Friday at home against the Hornets, which could be the Wizards’ second-best chance to win in their last 20 games, although odds have not yet been released.
Washington still has a home date against the Pistons on March 29th.
Expect the Wizards (9-53) to be moderate underdogs against the Hornets (15-47) on Friday.
Even if they don’t beat the Hornets, they’re +900 points to beat the impressive Miami Heat on Sunday.
The next best odds for the Wizards are +500 when they travel to Memphis next Tuesday to face the low-strength Grizzlies.

Betting on this market is basically a parlay where the Wizards lose all previous games and then win the game you are betting on.
For example, if you bet that the Wizards end up beating the Grizzlies, you’re also betting that the Wizards will lose to the Hornets (I predict the Hornets to be around -150 favorites) and that the Heat will win. Wizards (project is well above -500).
Even if they don’t win any of the next three games, there are still plenty of winnable games remaining in the season, including against the Bulls, Raptors, and Pistons.

They have an NBA-worst net rating of -12 over their last 15 games, but they have a chance to play against the Grizzlies, who have the second-worst net rating in that span (-9.8).
The Wizards took the Lakers to overtime on February 29th, losing by a narrow three-point margin, and have played tough games against many playoff contenders during this long rough patch.
