After Action Report
The Suns squeaked past the Jazz 100-97. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Jazz ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
