The Phoenix Suns (5-6) and Utah Jazz (4-7) are tied at 75 after a very high-scoring first half by both teams, as Kevin Durant can't miss for the Suns. Devin Booker tied his career-high with nine assists in the half.
Tonight is Phoenix's second game in the NBA In-Season Tournament and the third for Utah. The Jazz are 2-0 in tournament play, while the Suns are 0-1. That being said, tonight is a must win for the Suns if they want to have any chance of going to Vegas, as the Los Angeles Lakers are also 2-0 and own the tiebreaker over Phoenix since they beat them.
