After Action Report
The Wizards fended off the Celtics 106-98. The Wizards got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell; the Celtics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Celtics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
