The Wizards continue Summer League action on Thursday evening, taking on the Nets at 5:00 P.M. ET at Cox Pavilion in Las Vegas. The game will be Washington’s second Summer League outing while Brooklyn enters the matchup at 1-1. Thursday’s game will be broadcast live on ESPNU.

Washington is coming off a loss to Sacramento in their Summer League opener on Tuesday night. Propelled by a 13-point first half from Caleb Homesley, the Wizards dug out of an early double-digit deficit, but struggled to keep up any offensive momentum in the second half.

Following practice on Wednesday, Wizards Summer League head coach Mike Miller said he was encouraged by the team’s response to Tuesday’s performance – and was confident that getting their first game and a solid workout under their belts would set them up for a better performance Thursday.
