It felt as if the low point for the Phoenix Suns this season occurred last Friday night where, while leading by two points entering the fourth quarter, the wheels fell off as the team surrendered 42 points to the New York Knicks and what turned out to be a blowout loss. The team shot 36.4% from the field in the fourth and 0% from beyond the arc. Jalen Brunson had a free rein at the basket and the Suns’ defense had front-row seats to the show.
Then Sunday happened.
The team squeaked out a four-point win over the Washington Wizards, a team that entered with a 4-20 record.
