After Action Report

The Suns squeaked past the Pistons 107-102. Suns' scorers couldn't be contained. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Suns. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pistons · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
