Caldwell-Pope's 3 Lifts Wizards Over Thunder 122-118

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 30.8 seconds remaining and the Washington Wizards beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 122-118 despite being without star Bradley Beal because of health and safety protocols.

The Thunder lost their fifth straight game, and the key possession came with about a half-minute to play and the score tied at 118.

The Wizards worked the shot clock down, and Caldwell-Pope’s attempt from the right wing went in off the glass.

He responded by holding both arms out, apparently in relief, disbelief or both. Luguentz Dort missed everything on a 3 at the other end, and Kyle Kuzma made a free throw with 13.3 seconds left.
