Anthony Davis is giving Wizards fans a reason to come to games again

Wiz of Awes writer Maxwell Ogden argues that Anthony Davis is revitalizing excitement for the Washington Wizards after urging supporters to attend home games in larger numbers. Davis debuted for Washington with 34 points, 12 rebounds, and four assists to lead a 128-116 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks, which put the franchise above a .500 winning percentage for the first time since November 2022.

The article notes that Washington struggled with attendance during three consecutive seasons with fewer than 20 wins, ranking 29th in NBA attendance last season. Alongside Davis and Trae Young, Ogden highlights a young supporting core featuring 2026 number-one overall draft pick AJ Dybantsa, Alex Sarr, and Kyshawn George.
