The Washington Wizards have been off since Sunday and the long wait is starting to get to them.

“They are itching to play,” Wizards coach Randy Wittman said after Friday’s practice. “There’s no question about that. Today’s practice was very, very intense. And that showed me that they are tired of seeing each other down there [on the practice court].”

Fortunately for the Wizards, the wait is over. With Atlanta’s Game 6 victory in Brooklyn, the Hawks advanced and will host Washington in Game 1 on Sunday.
