Washington Wizards Three Takeaways: Wizards Lose In Overtime In Memphis

One stop.

That’s all the Washington Wizards needed to get their first win of the season on Sunday night against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Instead, they allowed Marc Gasol to hit an open 3-point shot, tying the game at 100 with just seconds remaining in the fourth quarter.

Washington scored a meaningless three points in overtime – a garbage time 3-point shot by none other than Marcus Thornton.

Wall hits a mental wall

On paper, John Wall played really well, scoring 22 points and dishing out 13 assists.
