After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Suns handled the Heat 102-92. The Suns won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns came in with something to prove after a loss. Style points be damned.
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.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
