After Action Report
The Raptors outlasted the Wizards 106-97. Raptors' offense had its way with the Wizards. Second-chance points piled up for the Raptors; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Wizards locker-room rift aren't helping. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
