After Action Report

The Wizards survived the Hawks 117-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Wizards' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Hawks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Wizards · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
