Washington will resume the regular season on March 10 at the Memphis Grizzlies and wrap things up on May 16 against the Charlotte Hornets, with the league's play-in tournament starting two days later. The playoffs are set to run May 22-July 22, finishing the season before this year's Olympic Games are scheduled to begin.
