The Wizards shot 50% from the floor and they outrebounded the Warriors 47-39 last night which were two big reasons for the nice win. Gilbert Arenas led the way for the Wizards last night with a stunning line of 45 points, 3 rebounds and 13 assists. Caron Butler was also outstanding last night with 28 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 5 steals. Brendan Haywood was a beast inside with 15 points and 12 rebounds. The Wizards are now 8-16 on the year.

The Washington Wizards (7-16) had a great chance to win against the Sacramento Kings (11-13) Wednesday night, but Kings’ rookie Tyreke Evans picked Gilbert Arenas’ pocket before “Agent Zero” could get a shot off with the Wizards down one.  Arenas still doesn’t look 100% after coming off his third knee surgery coming into this season.  Still, he has played well and finished with 33 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, and 2 steals.  It was disappointing to see him fail so badly in the clutch, but Tyreke Evans is a heck of a rookie.  Evans led the Kings with 26 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 huge steal.  The Wizards still should have one this game though, so it was a disappointing road loss. (7-16)

The Wizards are very happy with the performance of Earl Boykins since they signed him. Boykins has played in 14 games (0 starts) for the Wizards this season and he is averaging 21.1 minutes, 9.9 points, 1.9 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game. The Wizards need Boykins to keep up the good work because he always seems to give them a spark off the bench.

The Wizards expected so much more than they are getting from Randy Foye this season. He has played in 21 games (2 starts) for the Wizards this season and he is averaging 6.8 points, 1.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game. Foye is only shooting 37.6% from the floor and if he keeps heaving up bricks the Wizards will have no choice but to keep him on the bench. The Wizards need Foye to step up and play like he did in Minnesota because they were depending on him to produce when they traded for him.

The Wizards only shot 38.8% from the floor last night and it killed them on the scoreboard. Antwan Jamison led the way for the Wizards last night with 32 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists. Caron Butler also had a solid game with 20 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 steals. Gilbert Arenas only shot 4 of 14 from the floor but he still finished up with 16 points, 4 rebounds, 9 assists and 4 steals. The Wizards are now 7-15 on the year.
