The Phoenix Suns battled the Dallas Mavericks on Friday night in downtown Phoenix, ultimately losing by a final score of 98-89.

It wasn’t much of a battle in the first half as the Suns had a hard time converting shots. Phoenix shot just 33.3% from the floor in the first half and trailed 55-39 at the half after an abysmal 14-point second quarter.
