Rui Hachimura is 20-42 (47.6%) from 3 this season.
His strides from 28.7% and 32.8% his first two NBA seasons are so noticeable. – 8:30 PM

The Wizards’ most recent lineup late in the first quarter has been an interesting one: Ish Smith, Deni Avdija, Rui Hachimura, Kyle Kuzma and Thomas Bryant. – 8:30 PM

Daniel Gafford admitted his demotion to the bench frustrated him, but wanted to at least be a good teammate on the bench.
I’m sure he’s motivated to still get playing time even once Kristaps Porzingis makes his debut (although that may be some time away). – 8:15 PM

Chandler Vaudrin, a prep star at Uniontown Lake High School who played for #Cavs Summer League Team before tearing his ACL, is in the building tonight. Assistant coach Antonio Lang joked about him suiting up to play guard since Cleveland is so thin at that spot. – 8:15 PM

#Cavs Darius Garland went through a spot-shooting workout while I ate dinner from my fave Elmore Smith’s barbecue at RMFH. Garland’s shot was not affected by bone bruise in his back. 🔥 – 7:46 PM

Last night the Wizards shot 57% on wide open 3s. 55% of their attempts from three were wide open.
The Spurs shot 30% on wide open 3s. Only 34% of their attempts from three were wide open.
San Antonio in the end won the double OT game. – 6:24 PM

Austin Reaves says most of his rookie hazing came from Rajon Rondo and that there’s been a steep drop-off since Rondo left. Rondo would often make Reaves get things for him on the road. When asked for an example, Reaves said Rondo often made him get him candles. – 4:32 PM

The Wizards have listed Kristaps Porzingis as out for tonight’s game in Cleveland. The only other player on the conventional roster listed on Washington’s injury report is Bradley Beal, so Daniel Gafford should be good to go tonight after he tweaked an ankle last night. – 3:58 PM

Once Tomas Satoransky is fully integrated, I could see Raul Neto sliding to backup shooting guard and either Ish Smith or Sato could start
Wizards may or may not make the play-in tournament, but they should at least have some entertaining lineups and competitive games – 3:58 PM

Kyle Kuzma feels the responsibility for the Wizards to bounce back after the tough loss against the Spurs. He has confidence in his teammates and expects a dogfight tonight.

Once he clears waivers, he’s expected to sign with the Wizards Woj reported. – 2:01 PM
