After Action Report
The Suns held off the Jazz 101-95. Ugly basketball, but the Suns did just enough. Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
