After Action Report

In Washington, the Wizards snuck past the 76ers 109-107. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
