The Phoenix Suns take down the Utah Jazz 134-126.
Despite the Jazz knocking down an absurd number of threes (22) and shooting at an impressive percentage (56.4%), it still wasn’t enough to overcome the impact of Kevin Durant’s return. His presence proved to be the difference-maker as the Suns clawed their way to a victory in Utah.
The Suns also welcomed back Jusuf Nurkic and Ryan Dunn, though a late scratch for Bradley Beal opened the door for others to step up in his absence.
