Wizards 100, Trail Blazers 90: John Wall scored 22 points as host Washington beat a Western Conference power for the second straight game.

Bradley Beal's 17-foot pullup jumper quelled the Portland threat with 3:42 left, and Nene added a jumper from nearly the same spot in the final minute to put the game away.
