Devin Booker, Jusuf Nurkić postgame press conference after the Phoenix Suns (13-10) defeat the Golden State Warriors (10-13) 119-116
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!In Bradley Beal’s first game back in exactly a month, the Phoenix Suns narrowly escaped with a victory over the Golden State Warriors after nearly coughing up a big lead late in the fourth.
This game saw some drama-filled action, highlighted by the ejection of Draymond Green after he slapped Jusuf Nurkić across the face.
“What’s going on with him, I don’t know,” Nurkić said. “Personally, I feel like that brother needs help. I’m glad he didn’t try to choke me.”
Nurkić finished the night with 17 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists in 31 minutes.
However, it was Booker who once again carried the Suns with some huge shots down the stretch. Booker ended with 32 points, seven assists and four rebounds and was a +15 in 36 minutes.
The Suns will look to build off this game tonight, as they welcome back Mikal Bridges and Cam Johnson, taking on the Brooklyn Nets at 7 p.m. MST.
