Time: 8:00 pm AZ (7:00 pm PT/10:00 pm ET)
Place: Footprint Center, Phoenix, AZ
TV: TNT
The Suns return to action after a long rest and following a bad stretch of five losses in a row. The good news is reinforcements are coming. KD and Beal are back. We also happen to be playing the hated Lakers...on national TV...and it's an in-season tournament game. Lots to take in tonight. Can we get back on track? Tune in tonight to find out.

KD and Beal back baby! Hopefully this is the turn of the tide and we can get back to being a good team again. This past stretch has been brutal but we will be back to essentially 100% healthy starting tonight, knock on wood. F THE LAKERS!!!

The losing streak sucks but I think I'm going the cliché route that we learnt some things through those tough games last week or so
We played well in patches but could not sustain and I hope "the others" stay aggressive when their numbers are called especially Oso.
He should be able to keep trending up, finding pockets of space for his floater or to dunk with the attention KD n Beal gets

Strong first quarter, up 31-25. Beal and Grayson both playing great which is a welcome sight. A bit concerning that we seem completely unable to stop Anthony Davis.

Another Lakers game where we have no answer for AD. Plumlee at least puts up some resistance. Need to win those minutes when he sits. No Oso yet and Dunn only came in at the end of the 1st. Just hope they don't get cut out of the rotation with KD and Beal back. Need to spread the minutes out and get contributions from everyone. Book looking good from midrange but still passing up good looks for kickout 3s. Wish he'd be more selfish.
KD and Beal look really good, a lot of pop and bounce in their step.

Where do the Lakers keep finding these late first round white boys?

I love Oso and Dunn so much. What a great draft for us this year.

Brutal last minute of play due to the bullshit challenges
Take Nurkic out forever. Nothing good happens when he's in

So frustrating when we just go completely cold.

Royce is ice cold. Can't play him if he's not hitting 3s.

Nice put back by Dunn but we fall asleep yet again on a final shot. Seems to happen a lot this season.

There's a lack of defensive awareness generally, for sure.

It's wild he's been able to put these plays together without having an absolute disaster sequence like normal. Reddick saying let Nurkic best us, which probably won't happen.

Best quarter of ball for Nurkic this season. Amazing what you're capable of when you eliminate the dumb turnovers
