LOS ANGELES — “Frustrating.”
It was the word multiple Suns threw out Sunday afternoon to describe their loss to the Lakers. And their season.
“It’s frustrating. We show we can do the right thing sometimes, and then sometimes we don’t,” Booker said.
Inconsistency has been a hallmark of the Suns this season. Phoenix came into Sunday off one of its best performances, a Friday night win against Sacramento, with the chance to move within half a game of the Mavericks for the 10th seed and the final play-in spot in the West. The Suns were taking on a shorthanded Lakers team just home after a long East Coast road trip.
