The Brooklyn Nets (24-51) had been in the midst of a stretch in which it seemed like they were losing nearly every game that they played coming out of the All-Star Break. While Brooklyn was coming off a crushing blowout loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, they had a chance of changing that with a visit to the Washington Wizards (16-58) and they finally pulled through.
The Nets beat the Wizards 115-112 on Saturday in what was an exciting game from start to finish thanks to how both teams were playing on the offensive end of the floor, including how Brooklyn finished the game.
