• Spencer Dinwiddie returned; we spoke about that. Coffee?
• Wiz missed Beal and Porzingis; Coach Unseld Jr and me on what helped the team lock-in?

The Wizards were without Bradley Beal and Kristaps Porzingis, yet they beat Luka Doncic and the Mavs in a signature win.

Luka Doncic’s convo tonight with Kristaps Porzingis: “I said he has a nice beard.”
On KP’s pregame comments: “You can go against that team that traded you and say a lot of things, but he was always nice, always nice to Dallas, always nice to me, so I really respect him.” – 9:59 PM

Mavs fall to 1-4 on road and 0-2 in last 2 nights following a 4-game winning streak.
The 1st road loss was a blown 22-point lead at Phoenix. The 2nd was against a Pels team w/o 3 starters. The 3rd was last night against Magic w/o Banchero. Tonight Wiz were w/o Beal/Porzingis. – 9:24 PM

Kyle Kuzma has now scored at least 20 points the last six times he’s played without either Bradley Beal or Kristaps Porzingis in the lineup (dating back to before the KP trade) and at least 30 three of the six, including 36 so far tonight. – 9:18 PM

No Beal or Porzingis, yet the Wizards lead the Mavs 87-83 entering the 4th quarter. Kuzma (25 pts) and Hachimura (21 pts) have been the key ingredients.
Also, defense on Luka Doncic who has shot 5-14 FG with 5 TOs. – 8:51 PM

Rui Hachimura has been on a heater tonight. 19 pts in 15 min, 7-9 FG, 2-3 3PT. He’s a huge reason why this is a 77-74 game despite Beal and Porzingis being out. – 8:34 PM

Missing Bradley Beal, Kristaps Porzingis and Delon Wright to injuries, the Wizards trail the Mavs 61-58 at halftime. This has been a good effort game for the Wizards. Spencer Dinwiddie has a game-high 18 points on 7-of-9 shooting from the field. – 8:08 PM

For Mavs at Wizards tonight, Kristaps Porzingis will miss his first game of the year for Washington with a left groin strain. Bradley Beal is out for a 3rd straight game in health and safety protocols. Christian Wood is out for the Mavs with a left knee sprain. 6p, BSSW – 6:01 PM

With Kristaps Porzingis and Taj Gibson both out tonight, and with this opponent, Wes Unseld Jr. said this game is shaping up to be a small-ball game. So there isn’t a guarantee that Vernon Carey Jr. will play significant minutes tonight. – 5:40 PM

The Wizards will be without 40% of their offense tonight against the Mavericks with Beal and Porzingis OUT. The question is, who will fill in for the scoring? That’s what I’ll be watching for. #DCAboveAll – 5:37 PM

Wes Unseld Jr. declined to reveal his starting lineup with Kristaps Porzingis out but mentioned small ball lineups will see the court.
Could Rui Hachimura start at center 🤔 – 5:34 PM

My guess for Kristaps Porzingis’s left groin strain that now has him questionable is he will be a game-time decision. His typical pre-game warmups finish by ~6:15 pm.
In his first game vs. Mavs after the trade last season, he had an important 24p-7r-9a-2s without Beal or Kuzma. – 2:55 PM
