After Action Report
The Mavericks survived the Wizards 119-116. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Mavericks' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; shots just aren't falling for the Wizards lately. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Mavericks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
