Just as expected on draft night, the Wizards’ best player was Pat Spencer, and the former lacrosse star helped the team to a dominating fourth quarter, and a comfortable 87-77 win over the Golden State Warriors.
At several points tonight, it looked like the Warriors would beat the Wizards by double digits. Then they opened the final period with a “who’s that?” lineup so obscure, that I turned to my wife and said, “The Wizards are about to go on a run.” And they did, opening the fourth with a 20-0 binge.
The Good
- Pat Spencer is a longshot to reach the NBA, but during summer league he displayed solid skills and enough athleticism to warrant a closer look.
