Both mutt and neomutt support NNTP accounts, but it looks like mutt-wizard does not.
Believe it or not, Usenet is experiencing a modest resurgence. This seems to be driven — at least in part — by growing discontent with centralized social media services, the Reddit API controversy, etc.
The Big-8 wiki has a list of free text-only Usenet providers. In this context, "text-only" means the service providers filter out binaries groups; though some messages may have incidental attachments.
Clear text NNTP traffic is passed over tcp/119 and TLS encrypted NNTPS traffic is usually passed over tcp/563. A few Usenet providers use port tcp/119 only and rely on clients to use the STARTTLS command to negotiate a secure connection. By convention NNTP servers tend to be located at news.<domain>.<tld>.
It looks like mutt-wizard already uses the -n and -u flags for something else. Perhaps -N would be the next best option.
