After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Kings fended off the Spurs 122-115. The breakneck pace played right into Kings' hands. Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Kings carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Spurs · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
