After Action Report

The Mavericks pulled away from the Suns 127-113. Mavericks torched the Suns on the offensive end. The Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Suns lately. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
