After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Wizards 108-107. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Celtics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
