The Wizards' bench stepped up in Saturday's home win vs. Sacramento, led by solid performances from Nick Young (12 points in 23 minutes) and Earl Boykins (13 points, two steals in 20 minutes).
Washington was playing for the fourth time in five nights and just came off a double-OT loss to the Bulls, so they needed their reserves to carry their weight. Most of the starters were adequate but unspectacular -- Randy Foye had eight points and six assists, Brendan Haywood had 10 & 10 with three blocks, and Caron Butler scored a team-high 19 points.
