After Action Report
The Suns snuck past the Kings 107-102. Suns torched the Kings on the offensive end. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Suns' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Kings · 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.
