The Washington Wizards took Game 5 of their Eastern Conference quarterfinals series with Atlanta Hawks by the score of 103-99 on Wednesday evening.
As usual, the Wizards were led to victory by superstar point guard John Wall, who scored 20 points with 14 assists and six boards.
Late in the third quarter, Wall got the home crowd in our nation’s capital fired up when he emphatically threw down a wicked left-handed jam literally in Hawks big man Mike Muscala’s face.
WALLSTAR ✨
You gotta feel for Muscala, as he did the right thing and offered some help defense at the rim, yet looked incredibly foolish doing so.
