  • Devin Booker led the charge with 26 points and 10 assists, ending the Suns’ five-game losing streak.
  • Bradley Beal, back after missing five games with a strained left calf, contributed 23 points, shooting an efficient 10 of 15 from the field, including 3 of 6 from beyond the arc.
  • Kevin Durant, also returning after seven games sidelined with the same injury, added 23 points, showcasing his usual dominance.

Lakers’ Highlights

  • Anthony Davis recorded 25 points and 15 rebounds in a solid performance.
  • LeBron James contributed 18 points, 8 rebounds, and 10 assists but couldn’t spark a comeback.

The Lakers suffered their third straight loss, hindered by poor shooting, particularly from three-point range, where they managed only 23.5% (8 of 34).


Game Breakdown

The game remained close through the first half, but the Suns exploded in the third quarter, outscoring the Lakers 36-18.

  • Third-Quarter Surge: Booker led the charge with 11 points, while Jusuf Nurkic added 10, helping the Suns build a commanding 98-78 lead. This marked the second consecutive game where the Lakers struggled significantly in the third quarter. Against Denver, they were outscored 37-15 in the same frame.
  • Key Moment: Midway through the third quarter, Booker hit three consecutive shots as part of a decisive 14-2 run, pushing the Suns’ lead to 86-72.

Supporting Cast

  • Jusuf Nurkic: Rebounded from a rough start to finish with a double-double—12 points and 12 rebounds.
  • Grayson Allen: Contributed 10 points off the bench.
  • Royce O’Neale: Drained three three-pointers during the Suns’ second-half surge, adding nine points.

Takeaways

For the Lakers:

  • Despite a competitive first half, their second-half struggles, particularly in the third quarter, continued to hurt them.
  • D’Angelo Russell scored 16 points, and Austin Reaves chipped in with 15, but inconsistent shooting plagued the team.

For the Suns:

  • With Durant and Beal back, Phoenix looked revitalized, showing flashes of their full potential.
  • The Suns now boast a 9-1 record when Durant plays, compared to 1-6 without him.

What’s Next

  • Suns: Host the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night.
  • Lakers: Travel to face the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night.

The Suns’ performance highlighted their dominance with a full-strength roster, offering fans hope for a strong push in the weeks ahead.
