After Action Report

The Kings outlasted the Mavericks 112-94. The breakneck pace played right into Kings' hands. Second-chance points piled up for the Kings; shots just aren't falling for the Kings lately. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
