After Action Report

The Kings handled the Wizards 94-79. The Kings won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Kings steamroller is in full effect right now. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
