After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Suns squeaked past the Lakers 104-101. The breakneck pace played right into Suns' hands. Fresh off a statement win, the Suns stayed locked in; the Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
