After Action Report
The Wizards outlasted the Bulls 102-95. The Wizards won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Shots just aren't falling for the Wizards lately; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Bulls locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
