After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Wizards rolled past the Nets 116-84. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Wizards per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

- 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.
