Behind 20-point performances from Bradley Beal and Ian Mahinmi, the Wizards (14-28) defeated the Pistons (16-28) 106-100 in a matinee matchup as part of the NBA’s league-wide celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. In addition to his team-high 29 points, Beal climbed the Wizards’ record books in a couple categories on Monday afternoon.

Early in the third quarter, Beal scored points 17 and 18 of the night on a pull-up jumper and passed Bullets legend Wes Unseld for sole possession of fourth place on the franchise’s all-time scoring list. Late in the third, Beal tallied his sixth assist of the night and moved up on the franchise’s all-time assists list, tying Gilbert Arenas for sixth with 2,046.
