After Action Report
In Washington, the Pistons took care of the Wizards 118-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Tonight's Wizards utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
