After Action Report
The Suns handled the Mavericks 113-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Mavericks' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Mavericks locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Suns · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
