The Phoenix Suns rolled into Rip City on Saturday night for the first of two matchups against the Portland Trail Blazers. And promptly got stomped. Portland ran Phoenix out of the Moda Center, cruising to a dominant 127-108 win while exposing every crack in the Suns’ defense.
Devin Booker was the lone bright spot, dropping 37 points and inching closer to Walter Davis’ franchise scoring record.
