After Action Report

In Dallas, the Kings snuck past the Mavericks 117-113. Kings torched the Mavericks on the offensive end. Kings' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
