Meet the youngest Maryland Whipsnake ever, 11-year-old Gaven Bort.

Thanks to @MakeAWish, Gaven's story serves as a gentle reminder that lacrosse, like all sports, means more than what the final box score reflects.

My story for @PremierLacrosse:
premierlacrosseleague.com/articles/meet-…

AJ Dybantsa scored a season-low five points on 2-of-10 shooting against the Pistons on Thursday night, but was a team-high +13 and his jumper sent the game to 2OT.

Head coach Brian Keefe said Dybantsa had “no problem stepping up when it mattered.”

“AJ does winning things.”

The Wizards played their best game of the season on Thursday night, and still came up short in 2OT.

Trae Young (37), Anthony Davis (30) and Alex Sarr (30) combined for 97 as Washington fell to the Pistons 144-140.

The Wizards have lost six straight.

Trae Young believes that the Wizards have the "effort" but are missing the "skill" to compete at their best every night.

"It's more than just effort... There are a lot of regular people that can just give a lot of effort, but there is skill that goes into this game and a lot of mental things going into this game."

Trae Young vs. the Pistons:

37 PTS (season-high)
4-7 3PT
17-17 FT🔥
14 AST (season-high)
