After Action Report

The Jazz squeaked past the Wizards 102-101. The Wizards couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Jazz. Jazz's outside barrage was a constant threat; Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
