It's actually "Washington, DC," with DC being the District of Columbia, so it's like "San Antonio, Texas," where Texas is the state. So no team lists both a city and a state in their names.
Ahh! Ok. Now I get it. I'm not an American but I think the whole world is my place. So, I love to explore

Come to think of it, I don't think any NBA franchise (with the exception of the Warriors) is named after a state, right? They're all named after the city if I'm not mistaken.
NHL has several teams named after the state. I believed they are Panthers, Avalanche, Devils, Hurricanes, and Wild. Also the Coyotes went from Phoenix Coyotes to Arizona Coyotes several years ago.
Edit: I just realize the Timberwolves are also named after the state.

Ah that's right, Jazz. I was just in Utah last Spring visiting its beautiful national parks. Can't believe I missed that one.
