After Action Report
The Suns squeaked past the Raptors 99-96. The Suns won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns couldn't shake the cold spell. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
