After Action Report
The Pistons edged the Wizards 121-113. The tempo dragged the Wizards into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke; Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
