The squad is scoring fairly well against stronger rivals, with losing games decided only by a meager 10 or less. Though the Wizards are also struggling with their defensive line, the team’s well-balanced offensive line-up will have no problem encroaching through the Bulls’ defense to place the game in their favor.
