The Washington Wizards lost to the Philadelphia 76ers 122-103 on Wednesday, dropping to 17-63 on the season.
Washington’s starting five — Bub Carrington, AJ Johnson, Kyshawn George, Justin Champagnie and Alex Sarr — had an average age of 20.4.
Sarr paced the Wizards in the first quarter with a quick eight points, following up on his 16-point opening frame from the previous night against Indiana. The Wizards entered the second quarter trailing 25-23 despite Quinten Grimes shooting 0-for-7 from the field.
George had a sequence in the second frame where he locked up Lonnie Walker so bad that Walker shoved George to the ground in frustration, which drew a Flagrant 1 foul after further review.
