After Action Report

The Kings buried the Jazz 126-90. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. The Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Kings answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Jazz's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
