After Action Report
In Houston, the Suns knocked off the Rockets 114-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
