Teams Preview

Washington Wizards

The team took a bold step, making moves for Trae Young and Anthony Davis. While the trades make them a competitive side, the players won't be available for action soon. Till then, Alex Sarr has been their star player, and besides the Center, no Wizard’s star managed to make big contributions impacting the game results.  

In the Wizards' last five home games, they struggled in high-scoring losses to the Lakers, Knicks, and Heat but won games against Portland and Milwaukee. Alex Sarr performed well for the team, but the side struggled defensively, and gave away 123.2 points in those games. 

In the overall season, Sarr is leading them in rebounds and blocks, and will be looking to form a trio with the new additions. Meanwhile, their best standing is in blocks, with 6 per game (second in the league), while the side also did better in rebounding, with 43.5 boards per game.

On the offensive end, the team ranks 25th with an average score of 112.2 points and an offensive rating of 109.4 (29th). But their defensive rating is even worse, ranking 29th at 120.4.  

Indiana Pacers

The 2024-25 season finalists have only Pascal Siakam carrying them through the ongoing season, with Tyrese Haliburton injured and Turner’s choice to move away from the franchise. The former champion is leading the team in the 2025-26 season while the front office kept quiet in the transfer market. 

Overall, the Pacers have the worst offensive rating (108.8) and average 111.1 points per game. The team also shot 44.9% from the field, the lowest in the league. Absence of Haliburton affected the playmaking as the team had a 26.1 assists average and 14.3 turnovers per game in the 2025-26 season. 

The team fared better around the rim with a 42.7 rebounds per game average and 4.8 blocks per game. They also have an average of 7.8 steals per season. 

The Indiana Pacers have a 3-2 record in their last five away games of the 2025-26 NBA season. During this stretch, they averaged 114.4 points scored and conceded an average of 119.0 points
