After Action Report
The Wizards squeaked past the Spurs 114-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Wizards' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
