After Action Report
The Raptors handled the Suns 102-85. Ugly basketball, but the Raptors did just enough. Raptors' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Suns are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Suns locker-room rift aren't helping. Suns' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
