After Action Report

In New York, the Kings handled the Knicks 125-106. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Kings' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. The Kings rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
