In a rematch of the 2021 NBA Finals, it was the runner-ups
that came out victorious tonight. Devin Booker put on a shooting clinic as he
helped the Phoenix Suns defeat the Milwaukee Bucks 114-106 at Footprint Center.
After a slow start battling injuries, the Phoenix Suns have
turned things around as of late. The team from Arizona acquired 3-time All-Star
Bradley Beal and formed a new big 3 with him, Devin Booker, and Kevin Durant. Coming
into the season they were considered title contenders, and while things didn’t
go exactly as planned, those goals are still very much in reach.

This trio is capable of scoring 100 points any given night,
which is scary for league. The offensive firepower that these 3 bring is unmatched
and with the trade deadline coming up, it will be interesting to see if Phoenix
makes any moves to solidify this roster for a playoff push.
Booker led the way tonight with his 32 points on 57%
shooting. KD had 28 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, and 2 blocks while
Bradley Beal recorded 25 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals.
For Milwaukee, Giannis Antetokounmpo had 34 points, 10 rebounds,
and 6 assists. Malik Beasley recorded 22 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 assists while
Pat Connaughton finished with 12 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists. 3-time All-Star
Khris Middleton only played 8 minutes tonight before leaving the game with an
ankle injury.
This win improves the Suns to 30-21, which makes them 6th in
the Western Conference. Phoenix is 7-3 over their last 10 games and currently
on a 2-game winning streak. They will look to keep things going on Thursday
night when they face off against the Utah Jazz.
Meanwhile, this loss drops the Bucks to 33-18, which makes
them 3rd in the Eastern Conference and 0.5 games behind the 2nd seeded Cleveland
Cavaliers. Milwaukee is 5-5 over their last 10 games and currently on a 2-game losing
streak. Their next game will be on Thursday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
