After Action Report

The Kings knocked off the 76ers 126-125 in overtime. The 76ers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep; 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. The Kings rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it
