After Action Report

The Wizards blew the doors off the Rockets 130-95. The Wizards got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Wizards' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
