After Action Report

The Suns downed the 76ers 99-89. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. The Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Suns' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
