After Action Report
The Pacers edged the Suns 113-106. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Fresh off a statement win, the Pacers stayed locked in; the Pacers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
