After Action Report

The Suns edged the Kings 109-101. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Suns' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
