"Maurice Evans has had a great view of the Wizards games so far, but he would prefer the view from on the court than the one at the end of the bench. Evans had played in just three games for the Wizards this season, totaling barely 15 minutes, then played 15 minutes and 22 seconds in Monday's overtime win against the Toronto Raptors.

"I had some good minutes, especially the first time getting incorporated back into the rotation," Evans said.

"I just wanted to bring a lot of energy and try and focus on making the right plays that would help our team and not hurt us.""
