Are happy days here again for the Dakota Wizards? Time will tell as the team tries to turn things around after their worst start in franchise history. The Wizards are 1-and-9 and spent this week making many roster moves, including adding DeMarre Carroll, who is on assignment from the NBA's Memphis Grizzlies. For veterans like Renaldo Major and Darren Cooper, who are used to winning... the idea of losing isn't ideal. But at the same time, the season is still very young. "(Renaldo Major:) You have gotta take the good with the bad and that's life. Sometimes life is going to be good and sometimes, it is going to be bad and you just have to hang in there and keep the same character and demeanor that you have been carrying and as far as me and Coop, we have been used to winning and we just have to keep stressing to the guys how important each game is, each practice is and how we must prepare and how we must play and they are starting to get it, so things will turn around. " Another man who hasn't lost hope is Rory White, as the head coach sees a lot of upside with the roster he has. "(Renaldo Major:) We are competing, except for last Friday's game where we just didn't play hard and the thing is, we are in games. It is just sometimes, we have struggled to score down the stretch in the third and fourth quarter, but right now, I think the guys are come around. They are running and this is a whole new group. " Tonight, the Wizards are home against the Texas Legends. Tip off is set for 7:00 p.m. central time.
