Bridges scores 27 points, helps Nets recover after blowing big lead to beat Wizards 102-94
Mikal Bridges’ shot was off, two fellow starters just got back and two others are still out.
With an understandably spotty offense, the only way the Brooklyn Nets were going to win a game they were on the verge of letting get away was with their defense.
“There was just no other way,” Bridges said. “You’ve got to win and we were down, so you’ve got to get stops to win and we just locked in and pulled it through.”
