After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Kings handled the Rockets 99-86. Ugly basketball, but the Kings did just enough. Kings' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
