Caron Coming Through In The Clutch



The Washington Wizards shocked the Orlando Magic 92-91. In the beginning Orlando looked as though they were going to ran away with the game 32-13 after one quarter. Even with Butler and Foye scoring just two points each in the first half, the Wizards started chipping away at the lead. A tip-in by Antawn Jamison made it 50-35 at halftime. Butler closed the 3rd period with a long 3-pointer, then opened the fourth quarter with another jumper to give Washington its biggest lead of nine, 76-67. Butler and Foye scored an outstanding 49 of their 53 points in the second half. Butler's late 4th quarter jumper from the corner with a half-second left completed his season-high 31 points in a game in which the Wizards (17-32) once trailed by 21 points. It was the Wizards second victory in two tries this season against the division-leading Orlando Magic (33-17).
