After Action Report

The Suns took care of the Rockets 128-113. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Suns' outside barrage was a constant threat; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
