After Action Report
The Suns outlasted the Kings 106-99. Suns' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Suns; the Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
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 · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
