After Action Report

The Grizzlies snuck past the Kings 109-105. The better team simply showed up tonight. Grizzlies' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Grizzlies pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
