After Action Report

The Kings held off the 76ers 101-93. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a 76ers locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
