After Action Report

The Wizards pulled away from the Spurs 124-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · 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.
  • Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
