After Action Report
The Kings edged the Trail Blazers 118-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. The Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
