After Action Report
The Mavericks took care of the Suns 101-87. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
