After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Rockets squeaked past the Kings 101-100. The Kings couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Rockets. Fresh off a statement win, the Kings stayed locked in. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
