After Action Report

In Washington, the Timberwolves handled the Wizards 129-118. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Wizards.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Wizards · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
