No part of the box score was kind to the Washington Wizards in Thursday’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers at Capital One Arena. The Wizards lost the shooting battle by 22.5 percentage points, the rebounding battle by 10, the assist battle by 13 and, most importantly, the scoring battle, 134-96.
The Los Angeles Lakers will be without star big man Anthony Davis for at least a week due to an abdominal strain.
Turnovers: 11 (Hayes 3, Jemison III 2, Reaves 2, Christie, Hachimura, Knecht, Vanderbilt). Steals: 9 (Vanderbilt 4, Milton 2, B.James, Christie, Hachimura). Technical Fouls: Reaves, 2:14 first; Knecht, 1:25 fourth; Knecht, 1:25 fourth. Percentages: FG .319, FT .824.
If the Washington Wizards’ New Year’s Resolution was to win more basketball games, it’s safe to say they’ve dropped the ball. Washington hasn’t won since January 1, dragging a 15-game losing skid into tonight’s home stand vs. the Los Angeles Lakers.
