After Action Report

The Wizards took care of the Magic 104-93. The Magic couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Wizards. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Wizards; Wizards' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Magic utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

  • Magic · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Wizards · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
