Braden Beal adds 30 points, and Kevin Durant scores 31 as the Suns defeat the Jazz 129-115.
PHOENIX (AP) — With All-Star Devin Booker out due to a strained left hip, Kevin Durant scored 31 points, Bradley Beal scored 30, and the Phoenix Suns defeated the Utah Jazz 129-115 on Thursday night.
The Suns won their third straight and 12th of 15 games without ever trailing. They also defeated the Jazz in all four games of their regular-season series.
The Suns, who shot almost 60% from the floor, had 37 assists to just 12 turnovers, and scored 30 fast-break baskets, put on an offensive clinic that had the Jazz reeling, especially in the first half.
The basketball is being shared by our entire squad, according to Suns coach Frank Vogel. As a team, we aim to become a team first. Although we have outstanding scorers and individual talent, I really like the way we play as a team.
