The Wizards lost their 12th straight game to start the season by falling to the Spurs 118-92 on Monday night at the Verizon Center.

“I’d like someday for us to play like that,” Wizards coach Randy Wittman said of the Spurs after the game.

The Spurs (12-3) ended the first half on a 20-10 run to take a 60-48 lead into the break and never looked back. San Antonio shot 56 percent from the field and from three-point range for the game.

Tiago Splitter had 15 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists off the bench for the Spurs.

Washington (0-12) will need a win in their next six games to avoid matching the New Jersey Nets’ record 0-18 start they put forth in 2009.

“We’re all embarrassed — plain and simple,” Wizards forward Martell Webster said.
