Kyle Kuzma is fresh and fierce in return to lineup as Wizards thump Portland

The Wizards' forward returns after a four-game injury absence with 33 points in 36 minutes to power Washington to a blowout in Portland.

The Wizards shot above 50 percent from the field for the fourth game in a row, following Monday’s 60 percent effort in a loss to the Warriors with a 57 percent shooting performance and a win.

Coach Wes Unseld Jr. said his team successfully mixed defenses and made sharper adjustments on the fly. Washington shot 60.5 percent for the first half but led only 59-52 heading into the locker room thanks to 11 first-half turnovers and poor effort on the defensive glass — the Trail Blazers had seven offensive boards to the Wizards’ three through two quarters.
