After Action Report

The Kings pulled away from the Jazz 116-104. Kings torched the Jazz on the offensive end. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Kings. Whispers of a Jazz locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

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