After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Lakers edged the Kings 112-106. Ugly basketball, but the Lakers did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
