After Action Report
In a track meet, the Mavericks squeaked past the Suns 113-110. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Suns' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
