The Nets lost to the Wizards 119-102 after a second half that saw them trail by as many as 25 points due to the overall lack of effectiveness from Brooklyn on both ends of the floor. The Nets were playing on the second night of a back-to-back and that resulted in other players having to pick up some slack,

Cameron Johnson scored 18 points as the host Brooklyn Nets dominated the fourth quarter on Friday night and earned a 102-86 victory over the Miami Heat, who were playing their first game since trading Jimmy Butler.

A 31-9 fourth quarter, and a dominant defensive effort as a whole, propelled the Nets to their fourth win in five games.
