It took a full team effort as the Phoenix Suns battled their way to a victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday.
Mikal Bridges got things started early, showing off his range in the first quarter. The 22-year-old was just two three-pointers away from becoming the first Suns rookie in franchise history to record 100-plus three-pointers and 100-plus steals. He one-upped the needed total hitting three three-pointers in the first quarter, including two four-point plays as he set the Suns record as well as became the 11th rookie in NBA history to accomplish this.
The Suns scored a season-high 71 points in the first half as Josh Jackson led the way for the team with 13 points as the Suns held a 19-point lead over the Cavaliers heading into the break.
