After Action Report

The Kings outlasted the Grizzlies 106-95. The Grizzlies couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Kings. Second-chance points piled up for the Kings; the Kings pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
