After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Spurs took care of the Kings 113-103. Spurs' scorers couldn't be contained. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
