After Action Report

The Kings held off the Heat 99-93. Ugly basketball, but the Kings did just enough. Fresh off a statement win, the Kings stayed locked in; the Heat owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Heat · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
