After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Kings edged the Timberwolves 104-96. The Kings won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Kings ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
