PHOENIX — The top-seeded Phoenix Suns looked much more like their old selves on Tuesday night.
All-Star guard Devin Booker said a little time in front of the TV with NBA Coach of the Year Monty Williams did wonders.
"We study film," Booker said. "Coach is coming in with adjustments, we make them and we follow them."
Booker scored 28 points, Deandre Ayton added 20 and the Suns pulled away for a lopsided 110-80 win over the Dallas Mavericks to earn a 3-2 lead in the Western Conference semifinals.
The Suns bounced back after dropping the previous two games and can win the series in Game 6 on Thursday in Dallas.
