The Wizards’ offense has been superb, making 20 out of 30 shots on purposeful shot creation. They have 14 assists on their 20 baskets. … But there has been one issue: too many turnovers. Their six giveaways have led to 11 Memphis points. … Washington leads 48-39. – 7:52 PM

The Wizards’ offense has started far better tonight. It’s not just the shot-making that’s improved. It’s the process that led to the successful shots: collapsing the defense and exploiting the weaknesses to create open shots. Washington leads Memphis 17-12. – 7:19 PM

Couple of things I’m interested in in the Grizz-Wiz game tonight:
With Wiz playing small on the perimeter, do Grizz look to “hide” Morant on KCP, the ostensible SF but lesser scoring threat?
With Wiz not playing a big center, is Slow Mo/JJJ the closing frontcourt? – 6:08 PM

What I’m watching: WAS/MEM
The Wizards have struggled to shoot the three ball this season sitting at 26th in the NBA in 3P% (31.9). Tonight, they face the 29th ranked team in Opp. 3P% (38.6).
The looks should* be there, can WAS take advantage? – 3:27 PM

Coach Malone today said the offense – specifically shot making – is giving the Nuggets the most trouble.
“I think we were 2/15 on wide open threes against Memphis the other night. I don’t have a calculator, but that’s not a good percentage.” – 2:34 PM
