After Action Report
The Wizards took care of the Timberwolves 96-81. Ugly basketball, but the Wizards did just enough. Wizards' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
