After Action Report

The Celtics snuck past the Kings 112-110. The tempo dragged the Kings into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss; Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
