Beal, Wall combine for 56 points in Wizards’ 122-103 victory over Raptors
WASHINGTON — Pascal Siakam sat at his locker after Friday night’s loss, holding an ice pack on a bloody, stitched-up lower lip.
Trailing Toronto 2-0 in their the opening-round playoff series, the Washington Wizards came out swinging Friday night. Siakam’s lip, with three stitches thanks to what he believed was an errant Kelly Oubre elbow, spoke of just a little bit of the carnage.
“They came out and punched us and we allowed them to,” coach Dwane Casey summed it up.
Bradley Beal and John Wall scored 28 points apiece and the Wizards roughed up Toronto 122-103, cutting the Raptors’ lead in their first-round playoff series to 2-1.
