After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Spurs squeaked past the Kings 116-111. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Kings · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
