With a triple - double from John Wall and six three - pointers from Jared Dudley providing a spark, the Washington Wizards (26 - 29) defeated the New Orleans Pelicans (22 - 34) 109 - 89 on Tuesday. John Wall, the Wizards' perennial All-Star point guard, once again cleared a path for the Wizards to win, recording 16 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists. Despite the strong counting stats, Wall went just 5 - for - 17 from the field. His less than stellar shooting was made up for, however, by a strong shooting performance from forward Jared Dudley, who hit a season - high six three - pointers. As a team, the Wizards posted an admirable 29 assists while managing to disrupt New Orleans' ball movement, holding the Pelicans to just 17 total dimes. The blowout win advances the Wizards to 3 - 1 out of the All-Star break, with the sole loss coming on the third day of a rare back - to - back - to - back caused by a postponed game. Washington now sits at tenth in the East, and has a chance to make a push for the hotly - contested eighth seed down the stretch. For New Orleans, Anthony Davis has been making headlines across the NBA over the past week. On Sunday, the 22 - year - old became just the fourth active player to score 59 points in a single game, and did it while also pulling down a whopping 20 rebounds. The superstar followed up the monster night with another 20 - rebound performance on Tuesday, though he failed to reach double - digit scoring. In fact, it was a weak outing overall for the Pelicans' starting five, as no starter scored more than nine points on the night. Sixth man Jrue Holiday, however, stepped up to deliver 20 points and seven assists off the bench. Overall, however, it was not New Orleans' night, as the team shot a paltry 35 percent from the field. The loss snaps a brief two - game win streak for New Orleans following the break. New Orleans will face a challenging matchup against the 40 - win Thunder on Thursday. Washington, meanwhile, will hope to continue to win as they travel to Chicago on Wednesday.
