BOX SCORE:Wizards 101, Kings 95

Washington had a season-high 24 giveaways, but held the Kings to three points in overtime after seeing an eight-point lead evaporate over the final 5:12 of regulation.

DeMarcus Cousins had 36 points and a season-high 20 rebounds for Sacramento, which also committed its most turnovers of the season with 20.

Rudy Gay added 18 points, including the only 3 in overtime for the Kings, who were looking for their first back-to-back game sweep of the season.

Instead, Washington won its sixth of the year and fourth in its last six.

Cousins scored all but two of the Kings' points during a 12-4 run to close regulation, his last on a tough runner over Marcin Gortat to tie it at 92 with 10.1 seconds left.

Wall missed a fadeaway jumper at the buzzer, but hit a runner early in overtime to give Washington the lead. Then Beal hit his seventh and final 3 with 1:57 left in overtime to make it 97-92, after Markieff Morris rebounded Beal's initial attempt and kicked it back to him on the left wing.

Wall hit all four of his free throws to seal the win.
