After Action Report
The Suns blew the doors off the Hornets 129-95. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Suns; the Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
