After Action Report
The Suns outlasted the Spurs 94-81. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Spurs rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
