WASHINGTON (AP) — The Washington Wizards limited the Charlotte Bobcats to one field goal in the third quarter and cruised to a 108-75 victory on Monday night that snapped a seven-game losing streak.

Nick Young scored 21 points for the Wizards, short-handed while No. 1 pick John Wall remained injured and Rashard Lewis was unavailable after coming in a trade with Orlando for Gilbert Arenas.

Washington used a 21-2 run to start the third quarter and held Charlotte without a field goal for 12:20 in the second half of its biggest victory since a 103-72 win over Atlanta in January 2006.
