The Phoenix Suns were late to the party on both ends of the floor to start this road trip as the team was outscored 41-32 in the first quarter against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Offense was lacking sharpness, while the defense was seemingly non-existent to Darius Garland and the Cavs.
Phoenix would answer and then some in the third, and made it a new ball game as they’d take their first lead and dictate the rest of the way. When all was said and done, the Suns walked away with a 117-111 victory and a solid game to start their road trip.
