WASHINGTON (AP) Joseph Blair was next in Washington's line of succession. With coach Wes Unseld Jr. and assistant Pat Delany in health and safety protocols, it would be his job to run the team.

Blair's players made that task a little easier.

"Some feelings, words don't do justice, and I think today was one for me," Blair said. "You get kind of consumed in the game at a certain point, and you no longer care where you're at. You're just doing what you need to do to get the team moving forward, whether it's when I'm standing up as the head coach or if I'm sitting on the bench as an assistant coach."
