Wizards 120, Trail Blazers 101

-

WASHINGTON — Bradley Beal scored 25 points, John Wall had 24 and Washington rolled to its 12th consecutiv­e home victory.

The Wizards, who rely less on the 3-pointer than almost any NBA team, were 13 of 23 from beyond the arc. The 3-pointer-heavy Trail Blazers shot 8 of 26 on 3-point attempts.

Damian Lillard led Portland with 22 points and C.J. McCollum had 12, but they combined to shoot 11 of 29 from the floor.

The Wizards have won four of their last five games.

Embiid also had 12 rebounds. Dario Saric scored 17 points for Philadelph­ia, and Ersan Ilyasova had 12 on 4-for-14 shooting.

Jabari Parker and Giannis Antetokoun­mpo each scored 23 points for Milwaukee, which led 54-46 at halftime.

and Kenneth Faried scored 20 points for the Nuggets, who certainly packed their surging offense with them when they returned home from London. They routed Indiana 140112 last Thursday in England and remained on that sort of shooting streak, hitting a season-high 58.4 percent from the floor. They also had 33 assists.

Elfrid Payton had 20 points and 12 assists as the Magic fell to 1-4 on their current six-game trip.
