The Washington Wizards enjoyed a resurgent 2020-21 season, securing their first playoff appearance since 2018 after a strong late-season surge and a victory in the play-in tournament. Led by the historic play of Russell Westbrook, who broke the NBA's all-time triple-double record, and the elite scoring of Bradley Beal, the team finished as the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference. Although they fell to the Philadelphia 76ers in the first round, the season was a significant achievement highlighted by record-breaking individual performances and a thrilling return to postseason competition. A three-time NBA All-Star and prolific scorer, Bradley Beal is the Washington Wizards' all-time leader in three-point field goals and ranks second in franchise history in total points scored.
