After Action Report

The Suns pulled away from the Rockets 130-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Suns stayed locked in. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
