Deni. Absolutely ridiculous defensively and hit some big shots as well.

Give it to the rook for having a huge, confidence-building game. I don't think Kispert's 20 points were more important/valuable than Dinwiddie's aggression, Kuzma's clutch gene, or the Denitentiary's defensive versatility. But he had the best game of his career to date, so he gets the nod from me.

Winwiddie for me. He becomes prime Chris Paul when Beal sits

Gotta go with the sniper but there were a few worth a mention.

After a slow start Spencer once again stepped up without Beal.

Deni did this thing, making an impact on both ends.

Let's not overlook Holiday with an efficient 16/5.

Tough one. Dinwiddie had a real good final line but also had some super questionable plays. Kispert shot the lights out and was awesome. Deni was probably the most impactful player on the court. Kuzma was insanely clutch yet again. Holiday played well. 30 assists 42 makes. Fun to watch.

Dinwiddie made up for his garbage first half play with his play down the stretch. Deni was good and so was Gafford. The surprise really good games came from Holiday and Kispert. Holiday is very much a combo/2 guard and not a point guard. Kispert did Kispert-like things. The big difference in his game was he was not afraid to shoot and mostly hit his shots. Bert hit one big three but was mostly terrible again.
Can't say I do. Who else gonna shoot?

Great team effort. Glad Dinwiddie played to the level he is supposed to (bar the missed FTs). I’ll give it to the rookie.

I went with Kispert. I really wanted to give it to Deni because I love the kid, but when a guy scores 20 points on a TS% of 114% in his first NBA start, you gotta give it to him.

I'm going with Holiday as my POTG. He put up solid numbers and his aggressiveness/confidence on the offensive end from the outset of the game helped to set an early tone and example for the rest of the team.

This is the kind of problem it's fun to have!! :)

Gafford, Dinwiddie, Holiday, Deni & Harrell all had excellent games, plus Kuzma came up clutch at the end. It was great to see every one of those guys play so well.

Deni's defense was a joy to watch!

But Kispert has to get the nod for POTG.

They are DEFINITELY BETTER WITHOUT BB

I think a terrific trade will happen very soon
Tre Johnson is the future of the Wizards.
