After Action Report
The Raptors pulled away from the Kings 101-83. Ugly basketball, but the Raptors did just enough. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Raptors bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
