After Action Report

The Rockets rolled past the Wizards 125-105. Rockets' offense had its way with the Wizards. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; second-chance points piled up for the Wizards. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
