After Action Report
The Wizards edged the Nuggets 89-83. Ugly basketball, but the Wizards did just enough. The Wizards came in with something to prove after a loss; Wizards' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
