After Action Report

In Houston, the Suns survived the Rockets 97-95. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
