Washington Wizards History

Founded in 1961, the Washington Wizards franchise has called Chicago, Baltimore, Landover, Maryland. and Washington, D.C. home. Known earlier as the Packers, Zephyrs and Bullets, the franchise changed its name to the Wizards in 1997.

After earning two playoff appearances in their first five seasons in Baltimore, the team started a formidable run of postseason success starting in the 1968–69 season. Led by Hall of Famers Earl Monroe and Wes Unseld (and later Elvin Hayes), the Bullets went to the playoffs 12 seasons in a row, including four trips to the Finals and a championship in 1978. Behind an MVP performance from Unseld, Washington defeated Seattle in a decisive Game 7 to clinch the title. 

Five consecutive postseason appearances highlighted the Bullets’ 80s. The franchise bounced back in the early 2000s, built around the core of Gilbert Arenas, Antawn Jamison and Caron Butler. That trio led Washington to four straight playoff appearances from 2005–2008. Since then, the Wizards have qualified for the postseason five times behind All-Stars John Wall and Bradley Beal, the latter of which became one of six players in NBA history to average 30-plus points per game in back-to-back seasons.

  • Father and son night

    by DCQues on 2/2/25Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    My son and I attended the game because he did well in school and I promised him that I would take him to see his favorite team and players (LA Lakers and LeBron James). He was so excited and we stayed until the end of the game. Great food and beverage and also customer service was on point!

  • Great Seats, poor performance

    by BJ on 1/15/25Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 4 out of 5

    We had 3 great seats close to the Wiz team, easy to see both teams and the action. It wasn’t a full house so easy to get food, drinks and bathrooms. Wiz didn’t put up much of an effort, so the game quickly became a OKC runaway.

  • Nice place!

    by Jo on 1/7/25Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 4 out of 5

    I liked the place and the energy of the crowd :) I recommend it!

  • Great experience

    by CMJ on 1/5/25Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 4 out of 5

    Good atmosphere. Could use better signage and/or directions to upper level sections.

  • Wizards Knicks

    Great seats, great views, electric atmosphere! I can’t want to go back.

  • Expensive Soda

    by Rick on 12/31/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 1 out of 5

    I bought a "double"cocktail drink. It was basically an expensive soda.

  • Great Seats - Great Price

    by JoeP on 12/31/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    I bought two tickets at a very good price in Row K in Section 111. Our seating Section was directly across from the Arena entrance near Clydes of Gallery Place which makes it convenient for a pre or post game dining experience.

  • What a great time. Highly recommended

    by Dan on 12/29/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    Had a wonderful time. Food was great. Everything was clean. I loved getting in early with my Capital One card. A very exciting game as well. We will definitely be back.

  • Great Night for a Wizards Game

    by Family on 12/29/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    Our family recently attended a Wizards game v the Hornets. We sat in the 200 level Row C. The view was amazing! The concessions were high priced, so I'd recommend sharing the popcorn and soda. The atmosphere was family friendly. Great experience!

  • Fat chance

    by Slim Pickens on 12/19/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 1 out of 5

    The fellow sitting next to me might have best been nickedname Crisco. He spilled over onto my seat. Good thing the arena was not filled. It was easy to find another seat. The most exciting thing about the event was the tee shirt toss. The Wizards can't hit a Three - a problem when the Celtics are hitting 40% from beyond the arc.

  • Fun but not inexpensive

    by Sean on 12/11/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 4 out of 5

    I attended the Wizards game with the Memphis Grizzlies on December 8. The game was fun--the seats were good and everything went very smoothly at the Verizon Center. But it was not inexpensive -- the ticket (200 level) was $120 and the food and drink were over $25 for a pretzel and a beer and for an order of french fries and a large soda.

  • Decent atmosphere compared to the hockey

    by Mark on 11/28/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 4 out of 5

    Tickets were far more expensive than for the hockey. Pretty decent atmosphere, overpriced beer and ridiculously priced merchandise

  • Beware of Capital One Arena

    by Anonymous on 11/25/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 1 out of 5

    1. Save your e-tickets locally (e.g., in Apple Wallet) before you go because you will not have strong enough internet access once there to use the Ticketmaster app or a web browser to pull up your tickets. 2. Don’t bring an umbrella. 3. If you need to bring a bag, make sure it’s tiny. They are strict on their bag size rules.

  • Washington wizards basketball game

    by Kw on 11/2/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5

    Amazing experience. So easy to get to the Arena. Got there early for some food and to soak up the atmosphere. Loads of local people enjoying the basketball game. Friendly Staff and high scoring game! Loved it.

  • BAD SEATING

    by Rob L on 10/27/24Capital One Arena - WashingtonRating: 2 out of 5

    SEATS ARE SMALL and make coming to games harder and harder. I'm 6'3 and find the seating to be way too tight even for someone who works out and is lean. I've been coming to games solely to see visiting teams as the Wizards continue to make the worst moves and have no future. Games are just hard to get through enough with the teams play let alone the seats aren't comfortable.
