After Action Report
In a track meet, the Lakers edged the Suns 109-101. Ugly basketball, but the Lakers did just enough. The Lakers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
