After Action Report
The Suns took care of the Lakers 98-79. The Suns won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Suns. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
