After Action Report

The Wizards outlasted the Bobcats 113-104. Wizards controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Bobcats locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
