After Action Report
In Washington, the Wizards snuck past the Heat 88-87. Ugly basketball, but the Wizards did just enough. The Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell; Wizards' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
