After Action Report
The Kings survived the Jazz 126-122. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Kings' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
