In this episode of The Huddle Within, I sit down with Greg Finberg — Sports Editor at The Daily Collegian, Wizards writer for Bullets Forever (SB Nation), and host of The Wizards Podcast .
We dive into the world of Washington Wizards fandom, exploring the journey of becoming a fan, the current state of the team, and the importance of rebuilding through tanking and drafting. We discuss the emotional connections sports create, the role of veterans in a young team, and the vibrant community of Wizards fans.
The conversation also touches on personal growth through sports and the excitement surrounding the future of the Wizards as they develop young talent and accumulate draft picks. From childhood memories to the toxic highs and lows of being way too emotionally invested in a team, this episode goes beyond the game and into what fandom truly says about us.
