After Action Report
The Jazz upended the Kings 119-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. The Jazz are in a full-on tailspin; Jazz's defenders refused to give up clean looks. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Jazz · 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.
- 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.
