After Action Report
The Wizards snuck past the Celtics 96-95. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Wizards. The Wizards carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Wizards' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.
