Podziemski Faces Wizards After High-Scoring Stretch

Podziemski is a focal point for the Warriors against the Wizards, coming off back-to-back 25-point games. Despite a late missed 3-pointer in a 110-107 loss to the Knicks, coach Steve Kerr defended his aggressive play, noting he wants the guard to "go for the throat." Podziemski finished with 25 points against New York and has averaged 19.7 points on 47.6% shooting over his last seven games while stepping up in the absence of key teammates like Stephen Curry.
