After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Suns survived the Kings 101-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
