After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Celtics survived the Kings 113-111. Celtics' scorers couldn't be contained. Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; fresh off a statement win, the Kings stayed locked in. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
