The most metaphysical law of the NBA, the Wizards won 8 consecutive championships, and the Pacers may become the 9th championship

In the long history of the NBA, all data are counted, and there is one data that many people may not imagine.

The Washington Wizards (formerly Bullets) have never won the championship since winning the championship in 1978. However, this team has influenced the league in a strange way - all the champions of the past eight years have at least one player who has played for the Wizards.

Now, the Pacers are striving to the 2025 championship. If they reach the top, this magical law will last for 9 consecutive years!

US media ClutchPoints recently reviewed this magical phenomenon:

2017 Warriors: Livingston (6.6 points per game), McGee (2.8 points) - Warriors 4-1 Cavaliers

2018 Warriors: Livingston (7.5 points), McGee (8 points) - Warriors 4-0 Cavaliers

2019 Raptors: Judy Meeks (not scored) - Raptors 4-2 Warriors

2020 Lakers: Howard (2.8 points), McGee, Markieff Morris (7.5 points) - Lakers 4-2 Heat

2021 Bucks: Portis (7.7 points) - Bucks 4-2 Suns

2022 Warriors: Payton Jr. (7 points), Otto Porter (5.2 points) - Warriors 4-2 Celtics

2023 Nuggets: Pope (7.4 points), Jeff Green (4.8 points), Thomas Bryant - Nuggets 4-1 Heat

2024 Celtics: Porzingis (12.3 points) - Celtics 4-1 Mavericks

2025 Pacers: Thomas Bryant, Quinton Jackson (former Wizards) - If you win the championship, the Wizards' old champion will achieve 9 consecutive championships!

ESPN once pointed out that although the Wizards have not been able to compete for the championship for a long time, their old players are all over the league and have repeatedly become champion puzzle 7. This season's playoffs, 18 former Wizards players are distributed among 11 teams, including many key roles.

Despite the miserable record of the Wizards in recent years, their old players have dominated the NBA in another way.

From Livingston, McGee to Pope and Pope, the Wizards seem to have become the "cultivation base" of the champion puzzle. Now, can the Pacers continue this magical law? Let's wait and see!
