11/25 Washington vs. Orlando

Ever heard of this guy John Wall? May have heard his name somewhere? Yeah, he's pretty good. He's scoring a lot this season all while keeping his average assist numbers intact. That showed in tonight's game. Wall finished the night with 26 points and 10 assists. He is currently 11th in the league in total assists and 4th in the league in assists per game. All five starters for Washington scored in double figures. Washington let Orlando score just 38 points in the first half, which is pretty good, if you didn't know. The Wizards have been poor at defense thus far in the season so seeing this was definitely a crowd pleaser. Orlando cut the lead down to just two points twice, but Washington held up and didn't let their guard down. Orlando started the game shooting just 2-14, leading to a 17-1 Washington run. Washington has now won 13 of the last 14 games against Orlando. Although we did pull out with the win, the Wizards bench only contributed 12 points total. That's pretty bad.

Final Score

Washington - 94, Orlando - 91
