After Action Report
The Mavericks outlasted the Suns 124-117. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Mavericks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
