After Action Report

In Phoenix, the Suns survived the Jazz 98-95. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Suns' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
