After Action Report

In Washington, the Bucks outlasted the Wizards 113-105. The breakneck pace played right into Bucks' hands. The Bucks came in with something to prove after a loss; the Bucks pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Wizards locker-room rift aren't helping. The Wizards rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bucks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
