The Wizards lost to the Clippers 90-72 on Tuesday night in Las Vegas.

Unlike the first two Wizards games in Vegas, the Wizards adjusted their rotation. Troy Brown played limited minutes and suffered a left knee contusion early on. Meanwhile, Rui Hachimura sat the game out altogether. The latter situation is not uncommon in the NBA Summer League so coaches get a better look at their players.

Admiral Schofield scored 16 points in the loss and got the start. Moritz Wagner scored 13 points for the Wizards but only shot 3-of-11 from the field.

The Clippers had the advantage throughout the game. The game was effectively over in the third quarter but things go ugly in the fourth.as Los Angeles broke the lead open to a 20-point margin at times.

Washington will play their last regular season Summer League Game against the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday, July 11. Tipoff is at 6:30 p.m. ET.
