After Action Report

The Suns fended off the Jazz 118-109. Suns' offense had its way with the Jazz. Suns' stars took over and bent the game to their will; fresh off a statement win, the Suns stayed locked in. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
