After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Suns pulled away from the Hawks 136-126 in double overtime. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Suns carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
