After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Kings squeaked past the Trail Blazers 99-96. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Kings. Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Kings are in a full-on tailspin. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
