After Action Report

The Knicks squeaked past the Wizards 103-98. Knicks' offense had its way with the Wizards. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; the Wizards played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
