After Action Report
The Suns took care of the Kings 98-85. The Suns won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
