In Washington’s final game before the All-Star break, the Wizards (20-33) notched a 114-96 win over the Knicks (17-38) Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden. The win gives the team its first sweep of a back-to-back and concludes a 5-2 stretch to close the unofficial first half of the season.
Bradley Beal scored a game-high 30 points, his 12th consecutive game with 25-plus points, the longest active streak in the league and longest such streak by a Washington player since Walt Bellamy in 1964. The game was Beal’s 23rd 30-point game of the season – only four players in the league have more 30-point games this season.
