Alondes Williams, the funny “hero” of the Wizards
It’s money time between the Wizards and Pacers. Bilal Coulibaly’s team leads by only five points (114-109) with three minutes on the clock. So anything is possible for both teams.
But who is on the field to play to win? Jarace Walker, Cam Jones, Taelon Peter, Micah Potter, Kobe Brown Then Quenton Jackson for Indiana, facing Jameer Watkins, Kadari Richmond, Sharif Cooper, Anthony Gill etc Alondes Williams pour Washington.
That’s four players on a “two-way contract,” who actually alternate between the NBA and the G-League, two others signed by the Wizards for 10 days and the last five who are among the lowest salaries in the two clubs…
The 19 highest cumulative salaries of the two teams are therefore either in the infirmary or on the bench, to testify to this “money time” that Washington finally won. Enough to allow Alondes Williams to stand out with 25 points and 10 rebounds. Signed for ten days, the Wizards point guard exploded his previous mark (6 points) in his 11th game in four years in the big leagues after shining (40 points) recently in the G-League.

But in the long run, this Washington doubleheader is a pretty good thing … for the Pacers, who remain in last place in the East (15-42) as their opponents (16-39) move up in the standings. Because Indiana’s choice is protected only by 1-4 (then 10-30) during the next draft.
