The Bulls and Nuggets are in double OT in a preseason game.
It is the first time a preseason game went to double OT since 2016 when it happened twice:
Grizzlies-Rockets on Oct. 15
Wizards-76ers on Oct. 6 – 10:46 PM

The Wizards have won this exhibition over the Hornets, 98-92. Bilal Coulibaly finished with 12 points, five rebounds, four steals and one block. Kyle Kuzma scored a game-high 19 points on 8-of-16 shooting. The Wizards’ biggest concern has to be their defensive rebounding. – 9:26 PM

Wizards two-way Eugene Omoruyi seemed to take a shot to the face so Kyle Kuzma and Jordan Poole hopped off the bench asking the officials to review
Next defensive possession Omoruyi takes a charge and Kuz/JP are off the bench again clapping it up – 9:09 PM

One of the interesting changes in Capital One Arena this year for Wizards games: To return to their locker room from the court, the Wizards now are using the hockey tunnel at midcourt. Before, they entered/exited the court from one of the tunnels in a diagonal corner. – 8:12 PM

Fantastic defensive play by LaMelo. But this is the type of shot selection with 21 seconds on the shot clock left which makes analysts sour on Ball.
Clifford said tonight the ball needs to hit the paint more. Settling for a semi contested jumper on a fast break is sub optimal. pic.twitter.com/gPEg8t4Lkn – 7:18 PM
