It’s easy to look at Saturday’s Washington Wizards win against the Indiana Pacers as a big moment. Washington moved up to ninth in the Eastern Conference and where Russell Westbrook tied Oscar Robertson for the most career triple-doubles in NBA history. But one key player was injured and that could hurt them down the line.
Bradley Beal had a left hamstring strain during the game which occurred during the third quarter. While he was able to score 50 points (it would have been the BIG story in and of itself on any other night besides last night due to Westbrook’s accomplishment), he did not play in overtime.
