The Wizards are shooting 12 of 17 from three-point range tonight. The rhythm they built over their three previous games has continued with the reintroduction of Bradley Beal. Washington leads Oklahoma City 52-42 midway through the second quarter. – 7:50 PM

The Wizards’ second unit struggled badly on offense, going without scoring a point for a five-minute, 18-second stretch. Washington had trouble dealing with OKC’s ball pressure. This was the first time in six games that Jordan Goodwin struggled as a primary ballhandler. – 7:47 PM

OKC was down 17 in the 1st quarter.
Game is tied 3 minutes into the 2nd quarter.
So just a typical Thunder game. – 7:43 PM

Chicago has shot 80%+ from the free-throw line in each of its last 13 games, marking the longest such streak in a season in team history. There have only been 6 streaks as long in NBA history with the record 14-straight by OKC (2011), GSW (2013) & CHA (2017).
