After Action Report

The Kings squeaked past the Suns 116-111. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Kings; the Kings answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
