After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Pacers squeaked past the Kings 103-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Pacers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Kings couldn't shake the cold spell. Early returns: the Pacers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
