The Mavericks will encounter significant challenges against the Celtics because of Luka Doncic’s uncertain situation.
Phoenix: After overcoming the Houston Rockets yesterday night, the Phoenix Suns emerged victorious, albeit not without difficulties.
Devin Booker and Cam Whitmore got into a furious altercation in the fourth quarter:
Phoenix defeated the difficult Rockets team 110-105 in the end, and Booker discussed what transpired after the game:
Last game was when it began. The same. simply competing and exerting extra effort. It appeals to me. I’ve encountered these circumstances several times in the past. Booker remarked, “I was that same young player doing that same thing.”
“I recall talking about myself to Jimmy Butler in the postgame during my first season. Many individuals. You should never give up, and I appreciate him for taking on a strong player. You just need to be prepared for it.
Suns center Jusuf Nurkic shared his thoughts on the matter as well:
Nurkić remarked, “The kid did some bulls— in Houston too, if you remember” (h/t Burn City).
They’d want to play that dumb basketball. I recognize that they need to get motivated because they are young. They have an excellent coach, and in my opinion, they are well-positioned for the future, but we are not interested in playing silly basketball. I want to support my teammates no matter what.
On Saturday, the Suns take on the Rockets once more.
