After Action Report

The Bobcats survived the Wizards 92-89. Ugly basketball, but the Bobcats did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Bobcats; the Bobcats came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Wizards locker-room rift aren't helping. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bobcats · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
