After Action Report

The Jazz squeaked past the Kings 115-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. The Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Kings carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Jazz rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
