The Wizards dropped their second game in a row, falling to the Detroit Pistons 106-95 Wednesday night at Little Caesars Arena.
Despite the Pistons ultimately securing a double-digit victory, the Wizards kept things extremely close late in the game.
Things started off nicely for the Wizards in the first quarter. Ian Mahinmi provided the Wizards with a spark off the bench, as a thunderous dunk over Langston Galloway injected energy into the team. The Wizards entered the second quarter with a one-point, 28-27 lead. Unfortunately, Bradley Beal accumulated two fouls in the first quarter, which put the Wizards at a disadvantage moving forward.
