After Action Report

The Kings held off the Clippers 102-93. Kings' stops on the defensive end set the tone. Kings' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Clippers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
