After Action Report

In Phoenix, the Suns edged the Warriors 132-125. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
