After Action Report

The Wizards blew the doors off the SuperSonics 106-82. Every possession went the Wizards way. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the SuperSonics couldn't shake the cold spell. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
