After Action Report

In Houston, the Wizards pulled away from the Rockets 129-113. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Wizards cashed in. Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Wizards stayed locked in. The Wizards bench chemistry carried them.
