After Action Report
In New York, the Wizards survived the Knicks 95-93. The Wizards won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
