After Action Report
The Suns buried the Lakers 123-85. The Suns got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns came in with something to prove after a loss. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
