The Oklahoma City Thunder took down the Washington Wizards 123-105, winning the fourth quarter by 14 points. Oklahoma City racked up 15 steals, nine blocks and allowed just 42 second-half points.
Jalen Williams tallied 17 points on 18 shots, seven rebounds, four assists and a steal, while Isaiah Hartenstein racked up 16 points, 11 rebounds, three assists and two blocks. Joe drained a step-back triple for the night's first points and drew a flagrant foul on another 3-point attempt to bolster the Thunder's early offense. The Wizards missed their first six field-goal attempts before Valanciunas banked in a mid-range jumper, starting a 13-for-15 team shooting run that contained three transition layups and five 3-pointers.
With three minutes left in the second quarter, Thunder coach Mark Daigneault successfully challenged a transition Hartenstein charge that would have handed Washington possession. The big man made both following free throws, as Champagnie's blocking foul put Oklahoma City into the bonus.
