After Action Report
The Wizards buried the Nuggets 131-105. The Wizards got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Wizards; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
