After Action Report
The Kings squeaked past the Hornets 123-121. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Kings' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends.
What tipped it
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
