A basketball fused with a wizard hat and the Washington Monument rising from the center makes the Washington Wizards logo one of the more layered designs in the NBA logos collection, and this step-by-step guide breaks down how to draw the Washington Wizards logo from the outer ring all the way to the finished colored result.
What Makes This Logo Worth Practicing
The tutorial runs 16 steps and works through the logo as a series of nested shapes, starting with the circular frame and building inward toward the central basketball-and-hat symbol. The Washington Monument at the core adds an unusual geometric element that requires careful proportion work, and the layered ring structure with text placement gives solid practice in symmetry and spacing. The final step shows the fully colored version with navy blue, red, gray, and white fills applied.
Key Design Elements in the Logo
- Circular logo with outer gray border ring
- Red ring with white WASHINGTON and WIZARDS text
- Two white stars flanking horizontal white stripes
- Navy blue basketball with wizard hat overlay
- Central Washington Monument obelisk in gray tones
If you are working through other NBA team logos, the Oklahoma City Thunder logo and the Minnesota Timberwolves logo both deal with circular compositions and layered detail work, so they pair well with this one as practice pieces. The Boston Celtics logo is another solid follow-up if you want to keep building logo-drawing skills.
