After Action Report
The Kings pulled away from the Hornets 117-104. Kings' offense had its way with the Hornets. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; shots just aren't falling for the Kings lately. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping. The Kings rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
