Washington Wizards rookie Alex Sarr had arguably the worst NBA Summer League game ever Tuesday during his team’s clash against the Portland Trail Blazers.

The rims at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nev., were not kind to Sarr in the Wizards’ 82-80 loss to the Blazers.

The Frenchman took 15 total shots with seven of his attempts coming from beyond the arc. He missed every single one of them.

Sarr also went 0-for-2 at the free-throw line, meaning the Wizards center finished with a goose egg in the box score.

Sarr entered Tuesday’s game shooting just 30.8 percent from the field. It was hard to imagine that his shooting average would actually go down in his third summer league run. Sarr may have just taken some weight off Bronny James’ shoulders.

The only positive for Sarr was that he still managed to make an impact on the defensive end. The 7-footer grabbed nine rebounds and swatted three shots.

Sarr has recorded nine total blocks through three Summer League games.
