After Action Report

The Wizards took care of the Kings 113-100. The better team simply showed up tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Wizards; the Wizards carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
