NBA = American professional basketball, Wizards to which Rui Hachimura belongs is no longer likely to advance to the playoffs.

The NBA's postseason begins at each conference with four teams from 7th to 10th in the playoffs deciding match with two slots to advance to the playoffs.



Wizards was 12th out of 15 teams at the Eastern Conference with 33 wins and 43 losses so far, and although there was no match on the 31st, the 10th place Hawks won and the total result was 40 wins and 37 losses.



As a result, Wizards won all six games but did not reach the Hawks, eliminating the possibility of advancing to the playoffs for the second consecutive season.



Hachimura, who advanced to the playoffs for the first time as a Japanese player last season, was active in increasing participation opportunities in the second half, although joining the team was delayed due to "personal circumstances" this season, but the mainstay etc. So the team couldn't surface.



The Raptors, to which Yuta Watanabe belongs, are in 6th place at the same Eastern Conference, and if they can keep within 6th place, they can proceed to the playoffs unconditionally.
