After Action Report
The Suns snuck past the Hornets 111-110. Suns' offense had its way with the Hornets. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
