After Action Report
The Wizards snuck past the Timberwolves 118-113. The Timberwolves had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Wizards' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Wizards' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
