After Action Report

The Clippers pulled away from the Kings 127-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. The Clippers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Clippers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

  • 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.
