Washington hasn't won a game since January 29th but tonight will be an opportunity to stop that 14-game losing streak.

The Jazz are the first team the Wizards have faced that is under .500 since their last win.

Utah will be missing some key pieces tonight with forward Lauri Markkanen and center Walker Kessler being ruled out.

Let's see how the Inside The Wizards staff views the game tonight.

They have to eventually win right?

As terrible and long as this losing streak Washington has faced some really tough competition.

Utah hasn't been great lately either as they're only 2-8 in their last 10 games.

Don't get it wrong, the Jazz have a good team but with missing Markkanen and Kessler the Wizards are really undervalued here.

A 14-game losing streak is long enough and Washington has a fire lit under them to stop it here before it gets completely out of hand.

The Wizards are going to have a much better March then they did February, and it starts tonight.
