After Action Report

The Suns buried the Kings 124-85. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Suns stayed locked in. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
