Kyshawn George's 33 points bolster Wizards' future

Trae Young’s first 10 games with Washington have raised questions about his scoring consistency: he remains a prolific playmaker, but poor shooting, turnovers and a four-point outing in a 39-point loss to Oklahoma City have underscored the adjustment. The Wizards have reasons to look beyond Young as their sole offensive engine, with Kyshawn George delivering 33 points and seven assists against Atlanta before scoring 14 the next night, and Tre Johnson adding 23 points off the bench. George’s emergence offers Washington another potential creator, though his follow-up performance shows that consistency is still a work in progress.
