After Action Report

In Toronto, the Wizards squeaked past the Raptors 117-116. Wizards' scorers couldn't be contained. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
