After Action Report

The Kings squeaked past the Jazz 125-120. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Kings; the Kings ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. Whispers of a Jazz locker-room rift aren't helping. Jazz's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
