After Action Report

The Lakers outlasted the Suns 117-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
