Sabonis posted his 57th double-double of the season at WAS, tied with Oscar Robertson (1962-63: 57) for the 10th-most double-doubles in a season in franchise history.

5. M&Ms. Malik Monk and Davion Mitchell came off the bench and instantly started knocking down triples. Monk finished with 17 points and six assists. Mitchell finished with 6 points on 2-of-3 shooting, but he ran a team-high +32. Big night for the bench. – 10:20 PM
James Ham @James_HamNBA
4. Earned an opportunity. Kessler Edwards found a way to work himself into the rotation of a top tier Western Conference team after coming over at the deadline. That role continues to grow. Edwards started for Huerter and finished with 9 points on 3-for-3 shooting. – 10:20 PM
James Ham @James_HamNBA
6. Not needed. For a second straight game, the Kings’ offensive put on a show with De’Aaron Fox having a quiet night. He still managed to post 12 points and 7 assists, but a few light work days is very good for the star guard this late in the season. – 10:20 PM
James Ham @James_HamNBA
3. There he is. Keegan Murray has been climbing out of his funk over the last few games and he finally got the shots to fall. Murray was aggressive from the jump, hoisting shots at will. He knocked down 5-of-10 from long range on his way to a 19-point, 5-rebound performance. – 10:20 PM
James Ham @James_HamNBA
2. Body up. There is a Domantas Sabonis shaped dent in the chest of the Wizards front line. The All-Star big man bullied his way to the rim, finishing with 30 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists. He brought the power down low and nearly notched his 12th triple-double of the season. – 10:20 PM
James Ham @James_HamNBA
1. Holy TD. Terence Davis didn’t get the start with Kevin Huerter out, but he did get the last word. The reserve wing got hot in the first half, scoring 16 of his 21 points in a wild stretch. He brought energy, hit his 3-point shots and earned minutes with Huerter ailing. – 10:20 PM
