After Action Report
The Suns ran roughshod over the Kings 120-79. Suns' scorers couldn't be contained. The Suns came in with something to prove after a loss; Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
