After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Suns held off the Jazz 123-114. The breakneck pace played right into Suns' hands. Suns' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Jazz pushed the pace until the other side broke.
What tipped it
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
