After Action Report

The Kings buried the Raptors 116-93. Every possession went the Kings way. The Kings ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Kings' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Raptors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Kings · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
