After Action Report
The Wizards snuck past the Hornets 103-100. Ugly basketball, but the Wizards did just enough. The Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hornets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
