After Action Report

The Celtics outlasted the Kings 120-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
