After Action Report

In Washington, the Wizards outlasted the 76ers 107-97. Every possession went the Wizards way. The Wizards couldn't shake the cold spell; 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The 76ers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The 76ers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
