Last night the Nets defeated the Wizards for the third time this season (112-110) and are leading the regular season series 3-0.
Washington missed its main star Bradley Beal in this game. The 29-year-old shooting guard is still recovering from a hamstring injury.
Even though Beal was not playing, his name was brought up in the press conference. Kevin Durant praised the three-time NBA All-Star.
“He’s a Hall of Fame, All-Star player. Take that away from your team, you’re trying to figure out where that impact’s gonna come from,” the two-time NBA champion said about Beal, per Kristian Winfield.
Beal is averaging 22.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 5.4 assists in 35.1 minutes per game for the Wizards this season.
