After Action Report

The Kings outlasted the Spurs 121-115. The tempo dragged the Spurs into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Spurs · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
