After Action Report
In Washington, the Pistons buried the Wizards 121-97. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Pistons' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Pistons answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. The Pistons rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
