After Action Report
In a track meet, the Suns outlasted the Lakers 113-97. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Tonight's Lakers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
