The Denver Nuggets escaped the Phoenix Suns in overtime, winning the game 149-141.

With the Nuggets unable to miss from three early in the game, knocking down 13 triples in the first half, it looked like the game might have been over early. But the Suns continued to fight, even when trailing by 21 points in the third quarter.

Devin Booker became unstoppable in crucial moments, stepping up when Phoenix needed him the most.
