(SportsNetwork. Red Sox Marcus Walden Jersey .com) - NBA basketball is back in the nations capital and the Washington Wizards will celebrate their home opener Saturday versus the Milwaukee Bucks at the Verizon Center. The Wizards split their tour through the Sunshine State, dropping a 107-95 decision at Miami in the post-LeBron James era and recording a 105-98 triumph against Orlando on Thursday in the second night of a back-to-back. John Wall propelled the Wizards with 30 points on 10-of-21 shooting and handed out 12 assists against the Magic. Marcin Gortat powered his way to 20 points and 12 rebounds, while Paul Pierce netted 16 points in his second game with the team. The Wizards shot 48.8 percent and hit 7-of-13 3-pointers. We created more offense from our defense than our eight preseason games and the one last night, Wizards head coach Randy Wittman said. Nene added 12 points, five assists and three steals in his season debut after serving a one-game suspension for leaving the bench during a scuffle with Chicago in the preseason. Washington was 22-19 at home last season and is still without guard Bradley Beal (left wrist surgery). The Bucks collected their first victory of the season on Friday night with a 93-81 win in their home opener against the Philadelphia 76ers. It was a battle of the NBAs two worst teams last season and one team played like it at the Bradley Center. The Sixers failed to score a single point over the final 8:21, missing all 13 of their shots and turning the ball over four times. We closed the game out and it came from the defensive end, said rookie forward Jabari Parker. We just came together and pulled through. O.J. Mayo led the way for the Bucks with 25 points on 8-for-13 shooting from the field and 5-for-7 from long range. Parker had 11 points and 10 rebounds, Brandon Knight tallied 13 points, eight assists and seven boards while Larry Sanders added 15 rebounds for Milwaukee, which fell at Charlotte in overtime in its season opener on Wednesday night. The Milwaukee bench scored 45 points, highlighted, obviously, by Mayos big night. The Bucks held the Sixers to 37.2 percent shooting from the floor and 21.7 percent shooting from the 3-point line. Milwaukee lost three of four games against Washington in 2013-14. The Wizards have won six of the previous eight matchups in this series. Red Sox Carl Yastrzemski Jersey . Case in point: LeBron James vs. Ben McLemore. James was driving to the rim in the first quarter and McLemore decided to try to take the charge, which was quite admirable and predictably futile. Red Sox Bobby Poyner Jersey . Lost to Los Angeles in first round of playoffs. http://www.cheapredsoxjerseysauthentic.com/?tag=red-sox-dustin-pedroia-jersey . So true. It is one thing to create a winning football team, and another to keep it winning. Each and every week it changes. The NFL creates a unique interest of not who is "the best", but much more who is "the best this week". JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Jacksonville Jaguars expect to be without suspended receiver Justin Blackmon all season, maybe even longer. General manager Dave Caldwell said Friday it would be "relatively surprising" to have Blackmon back on the field this fall. "Its not something that were counting on," Caldwell said at the teams annual predraft luncheon. "It would be something that would be relatively surprising. Havent gotten a whole lot of updates from the league where hes at or from Justin, to be honest with you." Blackmon is suspended indefinitely without pay for repeated violations of the leagues substance abuse policy. He was previously suspended the first four games of last year for violating the policy. He played four games before getting suspended again -- at least for a year. But the Jaguars arent counting on Blackmon to return after eight games in 2014. NFL rules prohibit the team from having any contact with Blackmon -- aside from texts -- during his suspension. "Without having contact, we just have to protect the team now," coach Gus Bradley said. "Weve got to do whats right for the organization so we have to continue to move forward and project that. Weve got to get some guys in here at that spot and thats why youve heard Dave talk about wide receiver is a need because of that. Now, if everything works out to get him back, thats OK. We always will love to get very talented players in here. But its hard. But we just have to keep going forward." With Blackmons future uncertain, thee Jaguars are considering selecting Clemson receiver Sammy Watkins with the third overall pick in next weeks draft. Red Sox Jackie Bradley Jr Jersey. . If they dont take Watkins in the first round, they expect to use at least one of their other 10 picks on a receiver. The wideout class is considered one of the deepest in the draft. Blackmon has been involved in three substance-related incidents in three years. He was arrested on a misdemeanour DUI charge in Texas in 2010 after officers caught him speeding on a suburban Dallas highway. The charge was later reduced to an underage alcohol possession charge. A little more than a month after the Jaguars drafted him, he was arrested during a traffic stop in Stillwater, Oklahoma, after a breath test allegedly showed his blood alcohol content to be three times the legal limit. A subsequent violation landed him the four-game suspension. Another one got him the indefinite suspension. Blackmon caught 29 passes for 415 yards and a touchdown in the four games he played last season. He was the teams leading receiver during that stretch. While Blackmon sat out the first four games, the Jaguars averaged 224 yards of total offence. In the four games he played, Jacksonville hiked its offensive output to just over 350 yards per game. He has 93 catches for 1,280 yards and six scores in 20 games -- all since Jacksonville traded up to select the former Oklahoma State star with the fifth overall pick in the 2012 draft. Without him, the Jaguars relied on Cecil Shorts III, Ace Sanders and Mike Brown last season. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
