MIAMI (AP)—Caron Butler scored 25 points and Antawn Jamison added 22 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Washington Wizards to a 103-86 victory over the Miami Heat on Friday night.

Butler eclipsed the 20-point mark for the first time in five games since returning from a strained hip flexor that kept him out of the previous 16 games.

Bobby Jones scored 15 points for the Heat, who have lost 10 of their last 11 games and 37 of their last 41.

The Wizards led the entire way against the league’s worst team. They blew the game open in the third quarter, leading by as many as 25 points after Jamison scored eight consecutive points in a key stretch.

With the victory, the Wizards sat two games over .500 (35-33) for the first time since Feb. 3. They can improve their standing in the Eastern Conference when they host the Detroit Pistons on Sunday.

I watched some of the 1st quarter but then started to watch the NCAA tournament knowing that the Wizards would pull it out. This win puts them at 7-3 in the month of March.

However, the Wizards have a tough road trip coming up with opponents including Portland, Seattle, Sacramento, LA Lakers, and Utah. Hopefully, Nick Young's injury is not serious. Maybe Gilbert Arenas is close to 100% and returns sometime during this road trip.
