It is no secret that success in life is difficult. It is hard to win consistently at everything. The Washington Wizards understand this very well, as they have the worst record in the NBA. However, they are happy they were able to get what may have been the best win of the season against the Toronto Raptors.
The Washington Wizards, who have the fewest wins in the NBA this season, have a chance for their second three-game winning streak on Monday night in their rematch with the host Toronto Raptors.
