After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors took care of the Suns 106-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
