Rui Hachimura hit 6-of-18 shots, 3-of-9 3-pointers and 5-of-6 free throws for a team-high 20 points, five rebounds and one assist in Tuesday’s 126-113 loss to the Bucks.
Rui didn’t shoot it well or do much outside of scoring and hitting threes, but he came through if you started him tonight. Ish Smith came off the bench to score 19 with five dimes, Jerome Robinson started and scored 15, Thomas Bryant had 13 points, eight boards and a block, and Isaac Bonga and Anzejs Pasecniks each scored 10. The Wiz will wrap up their lost season on Thursday against the Celtics and it wouldn’t be surprising to see Hachimura and his bench brigade try to go out with a bang in a meaningless finale. They also interestingly started Troy Brown Jr. at point guard and he finished with nine points, six rebounds, three assists and a 3-pointer on 3-of-15 shooting. Ouch.
