After Action Report
In a track meet, the Suns handled the Jazz 108-96. The Suns won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Suns came in with something to prove after a loss; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
