After Action Report

The Wizards survived the Mavericks 108-105 in overtime. Wizards' offense had its way with the Mavericks. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; shots just aren't falling for the Wizards lately. Whispers of a Mavericks locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
