Hornets' P.J. Washington: Double-double in close loss

Washington had 14 points (6-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt), 12 rebounds and two assists in 36 minutes during Sunday's loss to the Pelicans.

Washington missed a game last week due to the birth of his child, but since then he's shown well, following up a pair of 20-plus-point efforts with a double-double in 36 minutes Sunday. Washington also added a steal and a block to his line, giving him seven steals over the last four contests.
