After Action Report
The Knicks pulled away from the Suns 121-105. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Knicks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Knicks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Knicks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Knicks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
