After Action Report
The Trail Blazers upended the Suns 116-105. The Suns had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep; Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
