After Action Report

The Kings snuck past the Nets 123-119. Kings controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Nets locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
