The Washington Wizards earned their eleventh victory of the season. The Wizards defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 142-127. Kristaps led the way for the Wizards with a career night. Wizards Forward Kyle Kuzma who scored 23 points himself, spoke on Porzingis’ career night postgame following the Wizards’ win.
“It’s always fun when you can get somebody a career night,” Kuzma said. “It’s very, very hard to play in this league. It’s tough to do anything in this league, and any time players can have career highs it means a lot to them, and as a player, you understand how much it means.”
