Washington owns a 1-13 mark in its last 14 contests and is coming off Fridays 116-107 loss at Toronto in which Trevor Booker pumped in a career-high 26 points and grabbed 13 rebounds. Jordan Crawford added 25 points and rookie John Wall compiled 21 points with seven assists for the Wizards, who fell to 1-31 on the road this season. I thought with all the rookies we had, they played well, Wizards head coach Flip Saunders said. Booker and [Crawford] took the opportunity and they played hard. JaVale McGee collected 11 points and 12 rebounds in defeat. The Wizards lost both tests on a two-game trek and will return to DC, where they sport a 15-20 ledger in 2010-11.

In a 110-95 loss at Milwaukee on Friday, Brook Lopez had 25 points and Deron Williams chipped in 18 points and nine assists for the Nets, losers in two straight following a five-game winning streak. Kris Humphries scored 10 points to go along with a game-high 11 rebounds. Williams is listed as questionable for todays game with a sprained right wrist and head coach Avery Johnson expressed his concern postgame. Were very concerned and its something were going to have a deep discussion about, Johnson told NBA.com. We were going to leave him out, but he wanted to go back in. I dont think we can continue every game at this rate. Johnsons squad is only 4-28 away from the Prudential Center in 2010-11.

The top-ranked Williams carried her winning momentum from 2013 into the new season, beating No. 2-ranked Victoria Azarenka 6-4, 7-5 on Saturday to defend her title at the Brisbane International and set the tone for the Australian Open.MONTREAL -- The Montreal Canadiens shored up their back end by acquiring veteran defenceman Mike Weaver from the Florida Panthers for a fifth-round pick in the 2015 draft. Weaver, 35, has six assists in 55 games this season but is more known for his defensive prowess. In the past, Weaver has been considered something of a specialist against Alex Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals. "If I stay out of the paper, Im doing my job," he said jokingly, as quoted by the Canadiens official website. "Im not a guy whos going to score a lot of points but I do the little things like block shots and penalty killing is my specialty. Id rather block a shot than score a goal so I guess you could say Im a goalies best friend back there." As the Panthers make moves for next season and beyond, general manager Dale Tallon was more than willing to give Weaver a shot to go to the Canadiens. "Were just looking too the future.

Montreal was in need of a solid defensive defenceman, and we felt that it was a good thing for Mike Weaver to get into the playoff picture and have a good opportunity to win with Montreal," Tallon said on a conference call Tuesday night. "Hes a great warrior, played his rear end off for us every night, blocked, shots, killed penalties, so I wish him well." Weaver has played in 585 career NHL games with the Panthers, Atlanta Thrashers, Los Angeles Kings, Vancouver Canucks and St. Louis Blues. This is the first time he has been traded. Its the second year in a row the Habs went for defensive depth at the blue-line. They traded a fifth-rounder last year to the Kings for Davis Drewiskie, who played nine games for Montreal to finish out the 2013 season. Weaver is in the final season of a US$2.2-million, two-year deal. He is set to be an unrestricted free agent July 1.
