Wizards 92, Bobcats 75

WASHINGTON – (AP) Nick Young scored 20 points, and Andray Blatche had 17 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Washington Wizards to a 92-75 win over the Charlotte Bobcats in Randy Wittman's first game as coach.

Wittman took over for the fired Flip Saunders on Tuesday, and guided the team without the benefit of a practice. Saunders' lead assistant has been an NBA head coach twice with Minnesota and Cleveland. His career record improved to 101-207.

He didn't change the starting lineup.

Matt Carroll scored 17 points and rookie Cory Higgins had a season-high 13 for the Bobcats. Tyrus Thomas also had 13 points and blocked nine shots one short of a team record.

John Wall scored 12 points for the Wizards, who broke a three-game losing streak but are still just 3-15.
