After Action Report

The Wizards took care of the Bulls 119-109. Wizards torched the Bulls on the offensive end. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. The Bulls rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
