After Action Report

The Kings knocked off the Clippers 112-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Kings stayed locked in; the Clippers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Clippers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. An upset for the books.

  • Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
