Jared Jeffries picked up a loose ball off Kirk Hinrich's errant inbounds pass and drove the length of the floor for a dunk with 31.9 seconds to play Friday, breaking a tie and propelling the Wizards to a
94-91 home victory over the Bulls in Game 6. The win gave Washington a 4-2 series triumph, its first since the 1981-82 season. Gilbert Arenas, Larry Hughes and Antawn Jamison each scored 19 for Washington, while Hinrich and Andres Nocioni led Chicago with 22 points apiece. The
Wizards will meet Miami in the East semifinals; Game 1 is Sunday at 3:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
