EDGE Analysis

With Spencer Dinwiddie traded to the Mavericks and Bradley Beal (wrist) out for the season, Neto got the start at point guard for the first time this season and wound up leading the Wizards in scoring while setting a new season high for himself. Washington did pick up Ish Smith at the deadline to join the backcourt rotation, but Neto figures to remain in the starting five for the time being.
