After Action Report
The Kings took care of the Trail Blazers 91-80. Kings' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Kings' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
