After Action Report

In Washington, the Wizards pulled away from the Timberwolves 118-102. The Wizards got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
