After Action Report

In Washington, the Jazz rolled past the Wizards 131-98. The breakneck pace played right into Jazz's hands. The Jazz answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; shots just aren't falling for the Wizards lately. Whispers of a Wizards locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
