After missing a couple games while tending to a family emergency in Poland, Marcin Gortat returned to the floor last night when Washington took on the Houston Rockets.

The Wizards lost the game, but Gortat looked pretty good, especially on this play:

Gortat is now averaging 14 points and 10.6 rebounds in his last seven games, shooting 56 percent from the floor. It's encouraging stuff for a team that needs all the good news it can get.
