After Action Report

The Kings took care of the Trail Blazers 114-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Kings stayed locked in; Kings' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
