After Action Report

In Washington, the Wizards ran roughshod over the Rockets 130-110. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

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