Today the Wizards are visiting the Celtics.
The Wizards had a 7-point lead at the end of the first half. Shortly following the start of the second half, they made several unsuccessful attacks and were chased down by the Green Army. With more than 8 minutes left in the third quarter, Jordan Poole had a fast break opportunity before his opponent might defend, but coach Brian Keefe did not allow Poole to complete the attack and called a timeout to let the team regroup. What’s interesting is that Poole’s next layup really didn’t go in.
Brian Scalabrine, the “White Mamba” who served as the commentator for the Green Army game, mightn’t help laughing and said: “Jordan Poole was regarding to attack, and the coach said: ‘No, we won’t let you do that.’ Jordan Poole was very frustrated.”

However, the Wizards were quickly overtaken by the Celtics and opened up the score. Jayson Tatum broke through and performed a wonderful dunk:
Poole was teased once more by Payton Pritchard in the final quarter, fell to the ground and was fouled:
In the end, the Green Army defeated the Wizards 133-129. Jayson Tatum scored 35 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 blocks, and Kristaps Porzingis scored 34 points and 11 rebounds.
