After Action Report

In Washington, the Heat snuck past the Wizards 131-126. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Wizards. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
