After Action Report

In Milwaukee, the Wizards survived the Bucks 108-105 in overtime. Wizards torched the Bucks on the offensive end. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bucks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Bucks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
