After Action Report

In Washington, the Wizards outlasted the Kings 118-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; the Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

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.
  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
