Wizards at Hornets final score: Washington silences Charlotte for 108-100 win

The curse is broken in Charlotte for the Washington Wizards as they held on for a 108-100 win over the Hornets on the road.

The last time the Wizards won in Charlotte, John Wall and Markieff Morris were our two leading scorers, Jason Smith had six off the bench, Andrew Nicholson drew a DNP, and a sophomore Kelly Oubre Jr. was on our side.

Coach Unseld went deep into his rotation early, using 11 players in the first quarter. The tactic worked out as a balanced scoring attack with eight players getting on the board gave Washington a 26-18 edge after one.
