Tyson Chandler ties Suns record for in-game rebounds in win over Hawks

Tyson Chandler was right at the center of the Suns' much-needed 98-95 victory over the Hawks on Saturday. Chandler tied a Suns all-time high for rebounds in a game, and became the first Suns player to grab 20 or more rebounds in two straight games.

Chandler's offensive rebounds number was not just an all-time Suns record, but it stands as the NBA season-high for offensive rebounds in a single game.
