The Phoenix Suns defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 109-99 on Monday night to improve to 16-18 on the season. It wasn’t easy or pretty, especially in the first half, but the team outscored the Sixers 67 to 53 in the second half to pick up their first win of 2025.
With a lot made out of the Suns’ new starting lineup, sending Jusuf Nurkiu0107 and more notably, Bradley Beal to the bench, Phoenix stepped up and put together one of their better performances of the season, spearheaded by Beal.
