After Action Report
The Suns snuck past the Warriors 136-135 in double overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Warriors' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
