The Washington Wizards defeated the Boston Celtics, 118 - 93, at Verizon Center on Wednesday. The Wizards (2 - 5) completely overwhelmed the Celtics (3 - 4) out of the gate, exploding for 34 points over the first 12 minutes. That stretch included a 160 run within the period that sprung them to an 18 - 2 lead by the 6:26 mark of the first quarter. Otto Porter spearheaded the Wizards' attack with a season - high 34 points, which he complemented with 14 rebounds, four assists, three steals and three blocks. As their final point total would indicate, Washington enjoyed a strong shooting night, tallying a 50 percent success rate from the field, as well as 48 percent from behind the arc. The Celtics were paced by Isaiah Thomas, who posted 23 points, 10 assists and six rebounds. Backcourt mate Avery Bradley was next, supplying 21 points, three rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block. Amir Johnson was the only other starter that got into double digits in the scoring column, compiling 11 points, three rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block. Marcus Smart led the bench with 20 points, three rebounds, an assist and a steal. John Wall checked in behind Porter with 19 points, seven assists, three rebounds, a steal and a block. Marcin Gortat managed 13 points, nine rebounds, two assists and two blocks. Bradley Beal registered only three points in 11 minutes on 1 - for - 8 shooting before exiting with tightness in his right hamstring. The comfortable lead and Beal's absence opened up extra minutes off the bench for Marcus Thornton and Trey Burke, who contributed 16 and 18 points, respectively. The Celtics head back home to face the Knicks on Friday night, while the Wizards remain home to face the Cavaliers in a Friday evening tussle.
