After Action Report

In New York, the Wizards edged the Knicks 99-93. Ugly basketball, but the Wizards did just enough. Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Knicks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Knicks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
