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.

For Milwaukee, Giannis Antetokounmpo had 34 points, 10 rebounds, and 6 assists.
