Young fan steals the show in Suns win over Nuggets

The Phoenix Suns might have had a good luck charm sitting courtside in Denver in last night’s 117-107 win over the defending champs.

A young Suns’ fan wearing a Devin Booker jersey was up and celebrating next to his friend wearing a Devin Booker high school jersey on almost every Suns’ basket, giving them lots of support on the road. Here he is celebrating near the end of the second quarter, a period in which the Suns won 37-18.

The fan continued his support even when Denver came all the way back from down as much as 22 to tie it up before the game went to overtime.

Then, you could see the fan up and jumping around right behind Kevin Durant when he hit the dagger 3-pointer in overtime and in Bradley Beal’s highlights.

Durant had eight points in overtime, while Beal had five, as the Suns outscored the Nuggets 15-5 in the overtime period.

After the game, Beal rewarded the fan for his support by gifting him his game-worn shoes.

This is not the first memorable Suns’ fan in Denver, as Ball Arena is where the infamous “Suns in four” incident took place.

The Suns need all the support they can get, as they are now sitting at 36-26, good for sixth in the Western Conference, with the toughest remaining schedule in the NBA.
