It was a tough win for the Washington Wizards, who lost by 15 to Miami on Thursday. The Wizards trailed by 10 points (84-94) with under five minutes left in the game. But the home team managed to outscore the visitors 19-6 in the final 4:20 to level the four-game season series between the two teams at 1-1. Bradley Beal explained that the Wizards’ physical play was a big factor in their win. Beal stated:
“It wasn’t easy. We just stayed in the game. We know it’s a game of runs. We know how tough of a team Miami is and they sent us a message last game. They were more physical than we were. I think, what’s his name, Gabe Vincent said something after the game that we didn’t too much like. He called us soft. We kind of took it a little personal tonight. We wanted to make it a physical game because they are a physical team. We made a good run man and we closed it out.”
