After Action Report
The Wizards snuck past the Bucks 110-109. The tempo dragged the Bucks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bucks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Wizards' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Bucks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
