The Suns have won two in a row for the first time since that small stretch in early March when Kevin Durant was on the court. A time that feels like ages ago.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!After defeating the Utah Jazz with a final score of 117-103, Phoenix now holds a 1.5 game lead over the Clippers in the fourth spot of the Western Conference standings.
For the second straight night, it was an all-out team performance, as the Suns had five players finish in double digits.
Devin Booker had himself an off night, and by off night, he only had 24 points, 18 of which came in the first quarter. It was just his second game with under 25 points since February 16th.

Luckily, Terrance Ross, T.J. Warren, Josh Okogie, Deandre Ayton, and Bismack Biyombo, all had themselves decent nights with equal contributions.
The Suns’ bench has shown great promise over the past three games, which was a portion of the team that many doubted after the Durant trade.

The Suns bench unit looks a looot more comfortable playing with each other. Just needed some reps together.
Three straight games where they’ve shown up. Positive sign.
