After Action Report
The Suns demolished the Trail Blazers 131-97. Suns' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. The Trail Blazers are in a full-on tailspin. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
