After a surprising and uplifting victory on Saturday over the Timberwolves, the Suns were unable to maintain momentum tonight at home against the Lakers, losing 100-93.
First Quarter
Devin Booker and T.J. Warren scored the first nine points of the game overall to give the Suns a big lead three minutes in. Their play prompted Lakers coach Luke Walton to call his first timeout early in the half, after which the Lakers responded with nine quick points as part of a 9-2 run. Suns coach Jay Triano called a timeout of his own.
