NBA Roundup: Bobcats end three-game skid

Bobcats 94 Wizards 92: Raymond Felton hit a fadeaway 12-footer with 1.9 seconds left and Charlotte beat visiting Washington Wizards last night to snap a three-game losing streak.

After Antawn Jamison missed a scoop shot in the lane, the Bobcats got the rebound and didn't call a timeout. Charlotte's play broke down, and Felton drove to the left of the lane and let go a shot over Randy Foye's outstretched arms that swished through.

Jamison missed another scoop shot in the paint at the buzzer for the Wizards, ending their unexpected and bizarre weeklong trip — even if they were likely to be stranded in Charlotte overnight because of another mid-Atlantic snowstorm.

Stephen Jackson scored 22 points for Charlotte. Caron Butler had 23 for the Wizards.
