Don’t be surprised to see the Suns rising as the second half of the regular season unfolds. They have all the pieces to be much better than what their current record indicates.

Devin Booker had a Suns-high 20 points (8-of-13 shooting). His eighth field goal assisted by Royce O’Neale at 9:51 put him under 100 points from breaking the Suns' all-time leading scoring record held by Walter Davis (15,666). But the Suns had a lull after that Booker shot.

Despite this, a strong January along with consistent support from players and coaches around the league has left some hopeful that the franchise legend will ultimately get a bid - including head coach Mike Budenholzer, who made his final plea in his post-game press conference last night.

Devin Booker had 31 points and 11 assists, Kevin Durant scored 19 against his former team, and the Phoenix Suns ran away from the Golden State Warriors for a 130-105 win.

Devin Booker entered Friday's game at Golden State 91 points shy of becoming all-time leading scorer for Phoenix Suns.

Phoenix Suns begin a four-game road trip Friday at Golden State with Kevin Durant and Devin Booker closing on historic scoring milestones.

Kevin Durant scored 30 of his 36 points in the second half and the Phoenix Suns defeated the Detroit Pistons 125-121.
