After Action Report

The Raptors buried the Wizards 119-82. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; the Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
