After Action Report
The Wizards held off the Pistons 106-99. Wizards torched the Pistons on the offensive end. Wizards' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
