After Action Report

The Kings squeaked past the Hornets 109-105. Kings' offense had its way with the Hornets. The Kings came in with something to prove after a loss; Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
