After Action Report

In Phoenix, the Grizzlies stunned the Suns 119-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. The Grizzlies answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Grizzlies pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Grizzlies bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. 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.
  • Grizzlies · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Grizzlies · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
