After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Trail Blazers survived the Suns 115-112. Trail Blazers torched the Suns on the offensive end. The Suns are in a full-on tailspin; Suns' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Suns locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
