GT #79: WIZ @Pacers 7pm 4/8/2025

With a loss the Wizards remove any chance of the Pelicans passing them in a race for the second worst record. Last time they played the Pacers won by 53 points over the Wizards.

It would be nice to have a loss here since the threat of the 76ers losing to us the next game is a real possibility. The Philly tank has been impressive as they strive to keep their first round pick. (Protected 1-6)

Wizards need a Pacer win!
:pray:

This is a trap game and a possible win. Guys might be super motivated after getting punked by Luke Cornholio.

I seriously doubt we win this game although IND is more or less locked into 4th
and might want to rest a few players.

Kyshawn George (ankle) is not listed on the NBA injury report against the Indiana Pacers.

Fun first quarter. Sarr looks...skilled? On it? A potential two-way monster?

After years of Wizards teams that didn't look like they were even trying to play defense, this is a refreshing change. They aren't always great at it, but it never looks like they're dogging it.

Haliburton with a Shaqtin A Fool shoe in. Worst pass of the year?

I just started watching, Sarr had a couple of nice finishes inside early. Good job keeping his pivot foot down on one of them.

Yep. A real keeper. 2-way player.

Great ankle breaker by Bub. However, he’s bricking everything else tonite…

Seems like sarrs shooting gets worse the longer the game goes. Gotta work on that conditioning

And Bub finally hits another 3!!!! After a great block by Sarr. Excellent performance by Alex.

I'm very impressed with Sarr this game.

Kieff trying hard to tank the game with an odd line up and 3 minutes left. Poole, Sarr and George off and Thor/Jones in.

The tank is strong- Wizards not using their timeouts, playing JT Thor in crunch time, and Bub Carrington playing 42+ minutes.
