After Action Report
The Lakers held off the Suns 103-96. The Suns couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
