After Action Report

The Wizards outlasted the Hawks 111-98. Wizards' offense had its way with the Hawks. The Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Wizards' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. 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 · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
