After Action Report
The Kings squeaked past the Knicks 101-100. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. The Kings carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Kings' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
