After Action Report
The SuperSonics outlasted the Lakers 116-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; SuperSonics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
