After a few humble, scoreless minutes, the Wizards arrived at their Las Vegas Summer League debut. And less than an hour of game time later, they took their final swing in this summer sledgehammer of a performance, putting Trey Lyles’ Jazz to bed in an 88-73 Washington win. The Wizards don’t have very many, if any, regular season roster players outside of Oubre on their Summer League team, but the group they have in Vegas played incredibly hard, beating a bigger, stronger Utah team on the glass and forcing 20 Jazz turnovers. Washington pulled away in the second half, out-scoring Utah 29-14 in the third quarter while unfamiliar names like Danuel House and Micheal Eric muted the Jazz’s efforts on the floor and the glass.
