After Action Report
The Wizards held off the Mavericks 93-86. The Wizards won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Mavericks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
