After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards demolished the Nets 125-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
