Halftime. Our big men are dominating: Ayton has 13 and 8, and McGee has 11 and 5. The Wiz don't really have anybody to stop them. Shamet is also having a nice game, shooting 3-4. Pleased with just about everybody's play so far. Suns by 12 at the halftime break.

Real BDE from Paul there. Crossed up Kuzma into an easy mid-range jumper then looks at the Wiz bench and gives them the "timeout" signal.

That last DA turnover was kind of comical.

Exemplary mid-season NBA basketball.

Has Bridges shot felt off lately? I haven’t caught every game, so not sure, but feels like he’s not making as much as normal.

He got a lot of money…Deal looks pretty bad now. He can shoot, just too 1-dimensional.

I mean, he's out there with with four fingers on his shooting hand. I'm cutting him some slack on the shooting for the time being. However, I want to see him continue to drive the ball into the paint more consistently.

I know we don’t like Elfrid, but he’s having a very good game from what I’ve seen.

Probably the worst contract in the league. Not Wall/Westbrook money, but Bertans deal expires after the 2024-25 season.

Jalen does elevate quickly, wish he would turn into something.

JaVale is ballin' tonight. Same for Cam Johnson despite getting screwed by that offensive foul call.

He'll turn into Thad Young. I think that counts as something.

Phoenix also thrashed Washington on the boards, 47-32

He got 7.5 minutes of run in the fourth quarter. A couple nice plays, a couple of poor plays, but nothing embarrassing.

I know it's not easy for him mentally right now, but his body language isn't inspiring confidence in his potential.
