After Action Report
The Mavericks squeaked past the Suns 100-97. The Mavericks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Mavericks locker room is humming, and it showed.
