After Action Report

The Kings survived the Lakers 101-96. Ugly basketball, but the Kings did just enough. Kings' outside barrage was a constant threat; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
