After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Suns snuck past the Warriors 116-113. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns came in with something to prove after a loss; Suns' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Warriors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
