After Action Report
The Kings survived the Spurs 99-98. The Kings won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Kings came in with something to prove after a loss; Spurs' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
