After Action Report
The Wizards held off the Pistons 107-99. Wizards' scorers couldn't be contained. The Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke; Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Pistons · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
