The Houston Rockets hit an NBA record 26 3-pointers against the Wizards, with Michael Carter-Williams of all people burying the final shot from deep. But Washington lost this game between the end of the first quarter and beginning of the second quarter. At the 1:30 mark of the first, Chasson Randle entered the game with the Wizards down one point, 25-26. Immediately after entering the game, Randle fouled Chris Paul to put him on the free throw line, unwittingly starting a chain reaction. By the time that Randle checked out at the 10:15 mark of the second quarter, about three minutes later, the Wizards were down 28-40 and Randle was a minus-11.
