Devin Booker went absolutely off against the New Orleans Pelicans (25-18) tonight, scoring 52 points to help the Phoenix Suns (23-18) cruise to a 123-109 road victory, their fourth straight win.
While Booker might have been killing it on the offensive end, the entire Suns’ team stepped up defensively. Kevin Durant, who finished with 26 points of his own, led the charge once again on the defensive side, totaling two steals and two blocks. Phoenix decided to start with Bradley Beal on Zion Williamson, an interesting choice to say the least, but it ended up throwing off Williamson’s rhythm just enough.
