After Action Report
The Suns pulled away from the Lakers 123-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Suns' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
