After Action Report
The Trail Blazers outlasted the Wizards 104-95. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Wizards ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
