After Action Report
In San Antonio, the Kings snuck past the Spurs 96-92. The Kings won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Kings answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Kings' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
