After Action Report

The Pacers buried the Wizards 113-86. The better team simply showed up tonight. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Pacers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
