After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards outlasted the Suns 113-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
