After Action Report
In Dallas, the Mavericks held off the Wizards 112-104. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. The Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
