After Action Report
The Lakers pulled away from the Suns 132-117. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Suns. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Lakers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
