After Action Report
The Mavericks snuck past the Wizards 130-126. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Wizards looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
