After Action Report
The Kings demolished the Rockets 123-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. The Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. The Kings rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
