After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Bulls survived the Kings 115-114. The breakneck pace played right into Bulls' hands. The Bulls owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Bulls couldn't shake the cold spell. The Bulls rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
