After Action Report

The Wizards took care of the Kings 114-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Kings are in a full-on tailspin. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
