After Action Report
The Suns survived the Pistons 105-100. The better team simply showed up tonight. 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. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- 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.
