Alondes Williams has career night in the Wizards' victory over the Pacers

Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) --- Alondes Williams had career highs with 25 points and 10
rebounds in his 11th NBA game and the Washington Wizards swept a back-to-back
set with the Indiana Pacers with a 131-118 victory Friday night.
Sharife Cooper matched his career high with 18 points for Washington, which
moved two games above Indiana at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings
and a half-game in front of Brooklyn, which played later at Oklahoma City.
Jay Huff scored 22 points and tied a career best with five 3-pointers for
Indiana. The Pacers finished 2-4 on a six-game trip.
Quenton Jackson added 21 points for Indiana. Micah Potter had 18, and Jarace
Walker added 12 points and 12 rebounds.
Indiana's Pascal Siakam missed a second consecutive game to manage a nagging
left hamstring injury. Washington's Kyshawn George sat with a sprained left toe
after playing 19 minutes in Thursday night.
Williams, a fourth-year pro who signed a 10-day contract Monday, finished 9 of
11 from the floor and made all five of his free throws. The 26-year-old scored
11 points in a fourth quarter that began with the teams tied at 92.
He finished his night by converting an alley-oop dunk off Cooper's feed,
feeding Cooper for a transition layup and then making his second 3-pointer with
just over a minute to play.
