John Wall scored 16 of his 26 points in the fourth quarter, and the Washington Wizards have their first three-game winning streak since 2008 following Tuesday night's 107-105 victory over the Detroit Pistons.
Wall, showing none of the complacency that might befall a rookie at the end of a long, losing season, also had 12 assists and six rebounds for the Wizards. In the final minute of the first half, he hurdled over two rows of seats along the baseline to save the ball, then ran back onto the court to knock the ball away from Will Bynum while landing atop the scorer's table on the sideline.
In the fourth quarter, Wall willed his team to victory — giving Washington a rare string of success.
