After Action Report
In Utah, the Kings survived the Jazz 109-104. Kings torched the Jazz on the offensive end. The Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Kings ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. The Jazz rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
