After Action Report
The Mavericks outlasted the Suns 137-127. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Mavericks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
