After Action Report

In a track meet, the Suns pulled away from the Cavaliers 136-124. The tempo dragged the Cavaliers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Suns pushed the pace until the other side broke; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Cavaliers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
