After Action Report

In Phoenix, the Suns fended off the Grizzlies 97-90. The Grizzlies couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Suns. The Suns came in with something to prove after a loss; Grizzlies' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Grizzlies looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Grizzlies · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
