After Action Report
The Wizards snuck past the Lakers 107-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; shots just aren't falling for the Lakers lately. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
