After Action Report

The Wizards stunned the Hawks 110-105. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
