The Washington Wizards lost to the Atlanta Hawks, 118-103 on Wednesday night at State Farm Arena.
This was the second night of a back-to-back on the road so the odds were against the Wizards.
Nevertheless, while the last three games of the Wizards were all blow-outs (whether L’s or W’s), this game was not technically a blow-out even though the Wizards never really made the game close either. The closest they got was an 8-point deficit in the second half, at 95-103 to the hosts with about 7 minutes remaining but 5 quick points from Gallinari and another triple from Trae Young quickly iced any hopes the Wizards had for a comeback at 95-110 and the Hawks never relinquished the double digit lead again.
