Even with Russell Westbrook playing in the second leg of a back-to-back and 46 points from Bradley Beal, the Wizards fell to a painful 111–110 loss to the Celtics Sunday night.
After missing all four of their shot attempts from the field to start the game, Wizards Head Coach Scott Brooks took an early timeout with his team trailing 7–0. Following the break, it was Beal’s free throws that gave the Wizards their first points of the game. The visitors finally made a non-free throw at the 5:41 mark of the first, courtesy of Davis Bertans (20 points, 5–9 from three off the bench).
