After Action Report

In Sacramento, the SuperSonics downed the Kings 96-82. The SuperSonics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
