Indiana played the Suns mostly even all night, but put together an explosive run in the third quarter to take down Phoenix, 122-111.
The game began with both teams playing at quite a high level, feeling one another out as you’d expect.
Malcolm Brogdon and Devin Booker started out on one another, and both players leveraged their advantages to go at each other for nine of the first 31 total points in the game.
At the same time, Deandre Ayton tried to use his hustle and athleticism to keep pace with Domantas Sabonis, as Ayton had a flashy assist and transition dunk while Sabonis scored seven early points.
