After Action Report

The Wizards took care of the Trail Blazers 126-113. The tempo dragged the Trail Blazers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Wizards carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • 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.
  • Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
