After Action Report
The Grizzlies fended off the Kings 117-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Grizzlies' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Grizzlies' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Grizzlies · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
