After Action Report

The Wizards buried the Lakers 118-95. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Lakers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
