Video: Beal and Westbrook Pull Off Miracle vs the Nets
The Washington Wizards have been one of the biggest disappointments so far this season but that didn't stop them from making some noise on Sunday. The Wizards stunned the heavy favorite Brooklyn Nets and they can thank the miracle work of Bradley Beal and Russell Westbrook hitting late threes.
Some game notes via The Score:
Bradley Beal and Russell Westbrook hit 3-pointers in a wild 3.8-second sequence in the final seconds to help the Washington Wizards stun Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets 149-146 on Sunday night. Westbrook had 41 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists, and NBA scoring leader Beal had 37 points. In the fourth quarter, Beal had 22 points and Westbrook had 15. Durant, second in the NBA in scoring, also had 37 points. With Washington down 146-141, Beal hit a 3-pointer with 8.1 seconds left. Garrison Matthews deflected Joe Harris' inbounds pass to Westbrook and he made a 3 with 4.3 seconds left for a 147-146 lead.
For Wizards fans, let's hope this is the beginning of a turnaround. Here's the wild finish:
