NETS 110, WIZARDS 98: Deron Williams scored 19 points and had 13 assists as New Jersey sent visiting Washington to its fifth straight loss.
Williams, who didn't play in Wednesday's loss to Portland because of a stomach virus, led five New Jersey players who scored in double figures.
The Nets never trailed and built a 15-point lead in the first quarter. New Jersey's biggest margin was 24 late in the fourth, as it won consecutive home games for the first time this season.
John Wall scored 18 points to pace Washington, which has lost 10 of 11 and completed a stretch of three games in three nights.
Gerald Wallace also had 19 points for the Nets while MarShon Brooks, who left the game briefly in the third quarter with an apparent neck injury, added 17. Rookie Jordan Williams added a career-high 14 points.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Nets center Brook Lopez, who played in only five games, has been shut down for the season. He's been plagued by a broken foot and sprained ankle. .... Nene and Trevor Booker each missed their fifth straight game with injuries for the Wizards.
