After Action Report
In a track meet, the Suns snuck past the Kings 116-115. The tempo dragged the Kings into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it

- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
