Wizards 90, Knicks 89

Bradley Beal made the go-ahead jumper with 22 seconds left and scored 28 points, and Washington took advantage of nine turnovers by Carmelo Anthony to edge New York on Friday night.

Wall added 19 points, combining with Beal for Washington's final 12.

The loss dropped the Knicks out of the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, with the struggling Atlanta Hawks taking a one-game lead after beating the Cleveland Cavaliers earlier Friday.

J.R. Smith scored a season-high 32 points for the Knicks but misfired on a potential game-winning 3 with 2.2 seconds remaining after Anthony lost control of the ball.

76ers 111, Celtics 102

Michael Carter-Williams scored eight of his 24 points in the fourth quarter and Henry Sims had career-highs with 24 points and nine rebounds and Philadelphia celebrated its second victory in less than a week, beating Boston.

Thaddeus Young and Elliot Williams added 15 points apiece for the Sixers, who have won two of four since tying an NBA record with 26 straight losses.

Philadelphia capitalized on 22 turnovers by Boston and overcame a triple-double by Rajon Rondo, who finished with 11 points, 16 assists and 11 rebounds for the Celtics.

Nets 116, Pistons 104

Shaun Livingston scored 23 points, Mirza Teletovic made six 3-pointers and added 20, and Brooklyn beat Detroit to extend its home winning streak to 15 games.

The Pistons, who once trailed by 22, cut the deficit to nine at one point in the fourth quarter, led by former UConn star Andre Drummond, who scored 23 and pulled down 18 boards. But Brooklyn was too balanced, putting six players scored in double figures.
