"The Wizards scored a season-high 63 points in the first half and made it a close game with the Denver Nuggets, but couldn't hold on for the win, as they dropped to 2-13 on the season with the 108-104 loss at Verizon Center on Friday night.

Nick Young provided most of the offensive firepower, scoring a season-high 25 points in 10 of 22 from the floor, including 4 of 10 from the 3-point line.

John Wall came close to a triple double, with 13 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds.

"It would have been good to get it [the triple-double] but it would have been better to get the win," Wall said. "Tonight was a tough night; not making shots, and then not really controlling the game like I did the other night [against the Oklahoma City Thunder]. We let it slip away from us in the fourth quarter.""
