The Phoenix Suns ended their preseason in Palm Desert, California, earning a win against the Los Angeles Lakers, bringing their final record that does not count to 4-1. It was the final tune up prior to the commencement of the highly anticipated 2023-24 season that will tip off next Tuesday in Golden State against the Warriors.
Without Devin Booker or Bradley Beal, Kevin Durant was the only member of the big three to suit up. He played only in the first half, shooting 8-of-14 and scoring 21 points in his 17 minutes played. Eric Gordon got the start alongside Grayson Allen.
