The Brooklyn Nets (18-59) have five games left in their 2025-26 NBA season before the team breaks for the summer and works on getting better for the 2026-27 campaign. Brooklyn also has three home games left with this one on Sunday being against the Washington Wizards (17-60) and if you’re wondering where you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place!
The Nets come into this game following a 141-107 loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Friday in which somewhat held its own through the first three quarters before completely dropping the ball in the fourth. Center Nic Claxton led the way for Brooklyn with 16 points and five rebounds while guard Malachi Smith, who recently signed a multi-year contract, put up 15 points and two rebounds in just 17 minutes off the bench.
The Wizards enter this matchup after a 152-136 loss at the Miami Heat on Saturday in which Washington played neck-and-neck with Miami in the first quarter, but the game slipped out of their grasp from the second quarter onward. Forward Will Riley had 31 points and five steals to lead the Wizards in both categories while guard Sharife Cooper had 20 points and seven assists in 25 minutes off the bench.
