After Action Report
The Suns outlasted the Trail Blazers 114-105. The tempo dragged the Trail Blazers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Suns' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
