After Action Report

The Grizzlies survived the Kings 99-98. The Grizzlies won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Grizzlies came in with something to prove after a loss. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. 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.
  • Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Grizzlies · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
