After Action Report
In Phoenix, the Suns rolled past the Mavericks 126-91. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Suns stayed locked in; Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
