After Action Report

The Wizards outlasted the Hornets 113-102. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Wizards carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
