The Phoenix team welcomed the Brooklyn Nets. Both of them were crippled by not playing the best players, Booker on the one hand and Durant on the other. However, in the end, Phoenix won 117:112.
Kyrie Irving returned to the Nets team, but he failed to help the team avoid another defeat in Kevin Durant’s absence.
The Suns had a palpable 65:51 at halftime, they didn’t let it fall in the last quarter and lose the triumph.
They entered the last quarter with a score of 96:74 and almost ruined everything, when near the end Brooklyn reached a basket behind, 114:112.
However, they kept their nerve and managed to win, the first after a series of three defeats.
In Phoenix, the best were Mikal Bridges with 28, Deandre Ayton with 24 points and 14 rebounds and Cameron Johnson with 19 points.
On the other side, Irving scored 30 points on the 11/27 shooting, Nick Claxton added 20, and Seth Curry added 16 points.
