After Action Report
The Spurs survived the Suns 109-105. Ugly basketball, but the Spurs did just enough. The Spurs pushed the pace until the other side broke; Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Spurs rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
