After Action Report
The Kings snuck past the Rockets 105-102. The Kings won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
