After Action Report

In a track meet, the Wizards snuck past the Hawks 116-115. The breakneck pace played right into Wizards' hands. The Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
