After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Mavericks rolled past the Kings 118-95. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Mavericks stayed locked in; the Kings came in with something to prove after a loss. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them. The Mavericks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
