27. Washington Wizards

Last Week’s Ranking: 22

Bradley Beal exploded for 60 points in their loss against the Sixers. As impressive as that was, he had only three points in the fourth quarter. Then they followed that up with another loss to the Celtics after Beal poured in 41. He had to miss their game against the Heat due to COVID protocols. But at 2-8, the Wizards cannot afford to keep wasting these scoring outbursts from Beal. If they do, it will not be long until the trade rumors start swirling again.

The Wizards have played five games with a three-point differential with three minutes left and have lost four of them. Their net rating in those situations is minus-48.5. Five of their 10 games have fallen into those clutch scenarios. 

Add losing Thomas Bryant for the season to a torn ACL to the list of problems in Washington.
