After Action Report
In Washington, the Cavaliers edged the Wizards 129-123. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. The Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Cavaliers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Cavaliers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
