The Washington Wizards will host a free fan fest at 6 p.m. next Saturday, Dec. 17, at Verizon Center that will feature an intrasquad scrimmage and a performance by R&B/hip-hop artist Wale.

The evening will also include interactive games, prize giveaways, team mascot G-man, the Secret Service dunkers and the opportunity for fans to have photographs taken with members of the the Bullets & Wizards Alumni Association and the Wizard Girls.

Training camp started Friday evening at 5, continues Saturday through Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. and on Thursday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Verizon Center. None of these sessions are open to the public. The first preseason gaem in Dec. 16 at home against the Philadelphia 76ers.

I’ve scrolled through this Wizards.com photo gallery of the new Verizon Center court multiple times today. It’s just beautiful. I plan on doing this several more times today to make myself smile.

76ers’ Preseason Slate Set

On Friday, the 76ers announced they will play two preseason games against the Washington Wizards. The Sixers will open their preseason schedule Dec. 16 at the Verizon Center in Washington. The game is scheduled for

a 7 p.m. tipoff.

The Sixers will play one preseason game at the Wells Fargo Center, hosting the Wizards on Dec. 20 at 7 p.m.

Because of the NBA’s compressed regular-season schedule, the Sixers will play just two preseason games instead of the standard six.
