After Action Report

The Kings survived the Lakers 105-103. The Lakers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Kings. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
