Kyshawn George went off against the Nuggets, when they faced off last Saturday. He tallied 29 points on 10-of-20 shooting in the contest, including 14 points in the final period to make things interesting down the stretch, but it wasn\u2019t enough as the Wiz lost 121-115.<\/p>\n
It\u2019ll be interesting to see how the Nuggets adjust defensively against George, and how the second-year swingman responds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Washington Wizards will try to snap a lengthy losing skid Thursday against the Denver Nuggets at Capital…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":552370,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3781],"tags":[7,1257,1828,4836,561,301,187,3943,6890,6333,6,253,302,494,26518,682,468],"class_list":{"0":"post-552369","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-denver-nuggets","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-bilal-coulibaly","10":"tag-cam-johnson","11":"tag-cam-whitmore","12":"tag-christian-braun","13":"tag-denver","14":"tag-denver-nuggets","15":"tag-denvernuggets","16":"tag-jonas-valanciunas","17":"tag-kyshawn-george","18":"tag-nba","19":"tag-nikola-jokic","20":"tag-nuggets","21":"tag-trae-young","22":"tag-tristan-vukcevic","23":"tag-washington","24":"tag-washington-wizards"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115936686463469662","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/552369","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=552369"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/552369\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/552370"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=552369"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=552369"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=552369"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
