Phoenix Suns head coach Mike Budenholzer summed up what happened in the 120-111 defeat to the Indiana Pacers, including the loss of Devin Booker to groin soreness in the second half.
Booker finished with 17 points and six assists before he exited the game in the third quarter. Kevin Durant had a double-double with 37 points, 10 rebounds and six assists while Jusuf Nurkić got 12 points and 10 rebounds. Bradley Beal returned after missing the last two games and scored 16 points.
Budenholzer revealed that having 16 turnovers was a massive issue, why Ryan Dunn did not play in the first half, what it means to get Beal back, likes what he is seeing from Monte Morris and more.
