What to Know
The Wizards have quite the challenge ahead of them as they’re expected to be blown off the court. They will take on the Denver Nuggets at 9:00 p.m. ET on Thursday at Ball Arena after having had a few days off. Both teams have had a bumpy ride up to this point with eight consecutive losses for the Wizards and three for the Nuggets.
Last Wednesday, Washington came up short against the Pelicans and fell 133-126.
The Wizards’ loss came about despite a quality game from Deni Avdija, who shot 6-for-10 from downtown and dropped a double-double on 43 points and 15 rebounds. As a matter of fact, that’s the most points Avdija has scored all season. The team also got some help courtesy of Tyus Jones, who shot 4-for-6 from long range and dropped a double-double on 14 points and 15 assists.
Meanwhile, the point spread may have favored the Nuggets last Wednesday, but the final result did not. They fell to Sacramento 102-98. The defeat unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for the Nuggets in their matchups with the Kings: they’ve now lost three in a row.
Despite the loss, the Nuggets got a solid performance out of Aaron Gordon, who dropped a double-double on 25 points and 15 rebounds. Less helpful for the Nuggets was Nikola Jokic’s abysmal 0-6 three-point shooting.
Washington has traveled a rocky road recently having lost 14 of their last 16 contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 9-45 record this season. As for Denver, their loss ended a seven-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 36-19.
This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: The Wizards haven’t given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 13.5 turnovers per game. However, it’s not like the Nuggets (currently ranked third in turnovers per game) struggle in that department as they’ve been averaging only 11.7 turnovers per game. Given these competing strengths, it’ll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
The Wizards came up short against the Nuggets in their previous matchup back in January, falling 113-104. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Jokic, who dropped a double-double on 42 points and 12 rebounds. Now that the Wizards know the damage he can cause, will they be able to stop him this time? Check CBSSports.com after the match to find out.

Timothy Weil
OBITUARY
Timothy Robert Weil 1952-2026 Tim Weil was born in Los Angeles, California.
In his early life he held many jobs, but he often commented that among his most memorable and rewarding roles was using his Spanish fluency to teach elementary school students in East LA. It instilled in him the importance of social justice which he in turn emphasized to his children.
On April Fool’s Day, 1981, he and “NC” (Nancy) married, a partnership that launched a unique and fulfilling life. Theirs was a union of sly, poetic witticism; they collaborated in writing jokes, songs, stories, and mythologies for over four decades. They maintained a high level commitment to wordplay and the celebration of silliness for most of their marriage. Tim and Nancy lived together in Boulder, CO, Chico, CA, Alexandria, VA, and Takoma Park, MD, before finally landing back in Denver as empty-nesters.
Tim found community in many places: Taking on a role as Assistant Scoutmaster with Page and Louis’ Boy Scout troop in Takoma Park; crafting an award-winning beer with his homebrewing group; staying in the game of baseball in the Ponce de Leon (over 50) league; playing bluegrass and folk music with other enthusiasts; performing stories with creatives at Denver venues; and joining Jewish congregations Temple Shalom in Maryland, and Temple Micah in Denver.
Tim’s creativity and playfulness were among his most defining features. Nothing was brighter than the gleam in his eye when he prepared to tell a joke, with a setup spanning about ten minutes of vivid details, often ending in a personalized, spectacularly delivered pun of his own design. To label those jokes mere “groaners” would be a disservice to his masterful storytelling. A piece he submitted to Rolling Stone about his jocular parasocial relationship with actor Lou Ferrigno received a personal rejection letter, noted as “very interesting” by the editor.
His professional work in the field of network security computing provided an outlet for his intellect as well as many professional and personal relationships throughout a career that spanned over 30 years. His writing was published in IEEE magazine and other tech journals.
Throughout his life he engaged deeply with visual art, literature, film, and music. He traveled far and wide, including to Jerusalem, Rio de Janeiro, Beijing, Kuala Lumpur, Manila, Vancouver, Seoul, Paris, Ipswich, London, and Edinburgh.
His recent struggle with severe depression was devastating for him and those close to him. It robbed him of his light and kept him in isolation from which sadly he was unable to escape. He will be remembered as the person who, despite the pain he carried, led an incredibly full life and touched the hearts of countless people with his witty humor and warmth.
He is survived by Nancy, his wife of 45 years, sons Page and Louis, daughter-in-law Jessica, grandsons Felix and Calvin, and cats Shackleton and Whiskey, along with many family and friends coast to coast.
A celebration of his life will be held in Denver at 1pm on Sunday, May 17th at Temple Micah, 1980 Dahlia Street. Bring your fondest memories of Tim. Please, no gifts or flowers. If you would like to make a donation in his memory, please consider American Foundation for Suicide Prevention https://afsp.org/.
