Wizards' defense steps up to down Nets, 102-88
(NBA.com Washington Wizards)

Saturday night´s meeting between the Wizards and Nets was an even playing field in one sense: both teams had traveled after playing (and losing) on Friday night and were looking for a quick rebound win. Washington got what it was looking for on its home floor, shooting 51.9% from the field and playing some of its best defense of the season on the way to a 102-88 victory.
