After Action Report

The Jazz shocked the Wizards 108-96. Every possession went the Jazz way. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Wizards sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Jazz rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Wizards · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
