Exhausted by his new offensive responsibilities, Bilal Coulibaly had experienced a big boost between the end of November and the beginning of December, with only 5.2 points on average at 17% shooting success and 5% at 3-pts over a sequence of six matches. Then he took his head out of the water against Memphis, with 17 units.
Then, the two NBA Cup evenings offered several days of rest to a large part of the league. The Wizards thus had four days to breathe, and the Frenchman took full advantage of it.
“I needed this break”he admits after the match against the Cavaliers. “Having time to go to the gym and shoot a lot, I needed it. We We all needed it and we had a good match. »
Especially him, with 27 points, his career record equaled, since he had already reached this mark on October 30 against the Hawks. He had legs to penetrate and dunk. “I saw openings, I went to the circle, and my teammates found me”he said.
In addition, his winning baskets in the final minutes gave the Wizards hope until the end.
Bilal Coulibaly finished this meeting, lost by Washington, with 27 points, but above all a clean 10/18 shooting including a very good 5/8 at 3-pts, as well as 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks in 40 minutes.
