After Action Report
In a track meet, the Suns buried the Rockets 137-111. The Suns got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
