After Action Report
In a track meet, the Wizards outlasted the Knicks 119-113. Wizards controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; Wizards' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Wizards rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
