After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Kings knocked off the Magic 106-103. Ugly basketball, but the Kings did just enough. The Kings pushed the pace until the other side broke; Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
