After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers demolished the Wizards 119-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
