After Action Report
The Suns squeaked past the Warriors 97-92. The Suns won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Suns' outside barrage was a constant threat. Whispers of a Warriors locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
