After Action Report
The Kings edged the Rockets 115-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. Kings' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
