Frank Vogel meets with the media after the Suns’ late-game collapse vs. the Spurs and had interesting things to say about the final moments.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The Phoenix Suns came out looking dominant against the San Antonio Spurs, leading 95-82 after three quarters.
However, they were outscored 33-19 in the fourth by a gritty San Antonio team.
It all came to a crash when Kevin Durant was stripped with five seconds left and the Spurs’ Keldon Johnson laid it up with less than two seconds remaining to give the Spurs a 115-114. Durant missed a last-second shot and the Spurs walked away with the victory.
“They fouled him,” Vogel said of the play.
