League-worst Wizards narrowly beat Jazz
Shorthanded Jazz lose to last place Wizards, 125-122
Wizards secure tightly-contested victory over Jazz
Kyshawn George had 23 points and seven rebounds, helping the Washington Wizards post a 125-122 win over the visiting Utah Jazz on Wednesday.
What an odd time to be a fan of the Utah Jazz. With only 15 wins to this point on the season, and no hope for a run to the playoffs, Jazz supporters have found a new reason to cheer, a new target to acquire,
Kyshawn George scored 23 points, Alex Sarr added 21 and the Washington Wizards edged the Utah Jazz 125-122 on Wednesday night.
George was a late addition to the injury report, and that's bad news for a Utah roster that is already going to be extremely shorthanded Wednesday. If George ends up sitting out, guys like Johnny Juzang and Svi Mykhailiuk could end up soaking up some additional minutes in the backcourt.
The New Orleans Pelicans will have five players out when they take on the Utah Jazz on the road at 7 p.m. CT on Sunday, March 2.
Blocked Shots: 12 (Coulibaly 3, Carrington 2, Sarr 2, Vukcevic 2, Kispert, Ky.George, Middleton). Turnovers: 9 (Ky.George 3, Carrington, Champagnie, Coulibaly, Middleton, Sarr, Vukcevic). Steals: 9 (Carrington 2, Coulibaly 2, Middleton 2, Ky.George, Sarr, Vukcevic). Technical Fouls: None. A_14,761 (20,356).
The Rockets' road troubles resumed after the All-Star break with a sixth loss in a row away from home. The Utah Jazz got the better of Houston this time.
