Kristaps Porzingis scored 25 points, including 12 in the third quarter as Washington took control, and the Wizards pulled away for a 132-114 win against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night.

Rui Hachimura tied a season high with 21 points and Daniel Gafford set season highs with 24 points and 12 rebounds off the bench for Washington. The Wizards were coming off a 144-102 loss at Boston to open their three-game road trip but have won five of seven.

“I think it was important for us to get that feeling back,” Porzingis said. “(Boston) was an ugly game from us, but we knew that’s not who we are and we can play at a much better level. … I think from top to bottom, we just kind of were having fun, sharing the ball, playing well.”
