After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Hawks fended off the Kings 98-89. The Kings couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. Hawks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hawks bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Hawks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
