The Wizards will play for the first time in nearly two weeks, hoping to mark their return with a win over the Spurs.

The short-handed Washington Wizards return to the court for the first time in nearly two weeks when they travel to San Antonio for a contest against the enigmatic Spurs on Sunday, January 24 .

After the workout, the team complained to league officials about a heightened risk of injury should they continue with their schedule, which was set to resume with a game Friday in Milwaukee. That prompted the NBA to postpone the team's sixth straight game. All-Star guard Russell Westbrook, who missed the Wizards' two most recent games with a left quadriceps injury, will travel with the team to San Antonio – and then on to Houston and New Orleans – but there is no timetable for when he will return to play.

"We dug a hole for ourselves, like we often have starting games," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said."But as the game went along we got more and more aggressive, more and more physical, communicated better, and they didn't give in after going down 18. Down the stretch we missed a couple shots, Dallas made a couple shots – game time."
