Shaedon Sharpe delivered a spectacular one-handed dunk, marking a standout moment in a career-best 36-point performance that led the Portland Trail Blazers to a 129-121 victory over the Washington Wizards. He shot 13 of 26 from the field and sealed the game by sinking all four of his free throws in the last minute, helping Portland secure a fourth-quarter lead. Anfernee Simons and Scoot Henderson supported with 16 points each, keeping the Blazers focused on the Western Conference play-in spots.

The Wizards, despite Jordan Poole's 24 points and Richaun Holmes' career-high 20, struggled to maintain momentum. Holmes proved effective, finishing 7 of 7 from the field, while the Wizards sought their first back-to-back wins since early February. Portland's solid offensive execution was evident in their advantage in field goal attempts, outshooting Washington 101-83.
