The Wizards were unsuccessful in their bid to garner a playoff spot, but entered Sunday trying to finish the season off on a positive note.

He contributed a 15 - point, 11 - assist double - double, and added five rebounds and a steal. The bench was also highly productive, contributing 53 points on the day. The Hornets were led by Frank Kaminsky III in a reserve role, as he pitched in 18 points and 11 rebounds. Kemba Walker led the starting five with 16 points, seven assists, three rebounds, a steal and a block. Marvin Williams pitched in with 14 points, six boards and three assists. Nicolas Batum tallied 10 points, five rebounds, four assists and two steals. Al Jefferson was efficient on the second unit as well, managing 10 points and seven rebounds.

Markieff Morris managed 11 points, two rebounds, two assists and a steal. Otto Porter, Jr. supplied 10 points and two rebounds.
