After Action Report

The Jazz outlasted the Kings 127-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Jazz; the Jazz bent the defense out of shape from deep.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
