After Action Report

The Wizards edged the Bulls 117-111. Wizards controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell; the Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Bulls looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
