After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Wizards outlasted the Kings 104-90. The Wizards won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Wizards' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Kings couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. Kings' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
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.
