After Action Report

The Kings pulled away from the Raptors 99-86. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Shots just aren't falling for the Kings lately; Kings' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. The Raptors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
