After Action Report

The Kings squeaked past the Suns 116-112. Every possession went the Kings way. Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Kings ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. The Kings rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
