After Action Report
The Suns edged the Pacers 124-118. The tempo dragged the Pacers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Pacers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
