After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards downed the Pistons 109-93. Every possession went the Wizards way. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Wizards' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Pistons looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
