After Action Report

In a track meet, the Wizards fended off the Timberwolves 129-120. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. The Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke; the Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
