After Action Report
The Wizards squeaked past the Lakers 98-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Shots just aren't falling for the Wizards lately; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep.
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.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
