After Action Report

The Rockets snuck past the Kings 105-103. The Rockets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Rockets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it
