After Action Report
The Suns downed the Rockets 120-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
