After Action Report
In a track meet, the Wizards buried the Timberwolves 140-118. The breakneck pace played right into Wizards' hands. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
