After Action Report

The Kings took care of the Jazz 105-90. The tempo dragged the Jazz into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. The Kings rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
