In Episode 31 of the Valley of the Suns Podcast, it’s time to talk about Game 1 between the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers before looking ahead to Game 2.

Welcome, Valley Boyz and Girlz, to another episode of the Valley of the Suns Podcast!

In Episode 31, host Gerald Bourguet is more than ready to dive into the Phoenix Suns’ first playoff game in over 11 years (and his first ever playoff game since he started working the beat six years ago)!

In a roller-coaster ride of a Game 1 to kick off the 2021 NBA Playoffs, the Suns defeated the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers 99-90 in Phoenix, giving this 2-seed a much-needed victory at home against a more experienced opponent.
