After Action Report
The Suns outlasted the Hornets 97-88. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Suns. Suns' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
