After Action Report
The Suns took care of the Nuggets 111-97. Suns' scorers couldn't be contained. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; second-chance points piled up for the Nuggets. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
