After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Kings survived the Rockets 113-111. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Kings. The Kings carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. The Kings rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
