After starting the season 3-1, the Wizards went on a three-game losing streak. Most recently Washington lost against Philadelphia (118-111).
Wizards’ star Bradley Beal had 20 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in 38 minutes. He was Washington’s second top scorer behind Kristaps Porzingis who scored 32 points.
According to Beal, his team is not being aggressive enough on the offensive end which results in players not getting easier shots.
“It’s still a work in progress,” Beal said postgame Monday. “We still have so many guys who are able to do so many things. It’s figuring out that rhythm…We gotta be a lot more aggressive. I think sometimes we walk the ball up. We’re not cutting as hard, we’re not screening as hard, we’re not getting into our sets as quick as a lot of teams are, we’re not getting easier buckets. I think we gotta work extremely hard to score.”
This season Beal is averaging 20.8 points, 3.7 rebounds and 6.2 assists in 35.3 minutes per game for Washington.
