After Action Report
The Suns demolished the Lakers 123-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
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 · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
