After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Kings squeaked past the Lakers 121-119. The Kings got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
