After Action Report

The Suns pulled away from the Wizards 119-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Suns' outside barrage was a constant threat.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Wizards · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
