In the WASHINGTON POST, Ivan Carter writes "a Wizards guard Nick Young was excited about making his first NBA start against the Sacramento Kings on Saturday night.

And then, not even four minutes into the game, Young picked up two fouls and headed right back on the bench. When Jordan learned last Friday that Antonio Daniels was expected to miss two to four weeks with a right knee injury, he weighed his options and elected to start Young over veteran Roger Mason Jr., who has been one of the team's most solid performers during a four-game winning streak.”
