There is still no one watching the Suns. Still out with a lower back issue is Bradley Beal. The Suns’ matchup against their conference opponents was tight. Booker scored 34 points in just 36 minutes of play to lead Phoenix in scoring. With 37 points, Jaren Jackson Jr. was the Grizzlies’ leading scorer.

Happy Suns players

The victory brought the Suns’ season record up to 12-8. On Tuesday, the Suns will face off against the Lakers in the quarterfinals of the In-Season Tournament. The game starts at 8:00 p.m. CT.
