After Action Report
The Kings pulled away from the Trail Blazers 113-103. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Kings' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
