After Action Report
The Wizards survived the Rockets 104-101. Ugly basketball, but the Wizards did just enough. Wizards' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
