The Nets held off the Kings 107-101. Every possession went the Nets way. The Nets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Nets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Nets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
