In a heated matchup that came down to the wire, the Phoenix Suns used big performances from Kevin Durant and Devin Booker to defeat the Dallas Mavericks.

The Suns knocked off the Mavericks 130-126 in a game with all the scoring that had been advertised.

Deandre Ayton had only 9 points, but was huge on the boards with 16 rebounds. He was sometimes doubled, which led to fewer attempts than perhaps some thought he might get in this one, but he made the clean looks he got count. to bury a two point bucket with 11 seconds left, putting the Suns up 128-126. Durant and Booker both shone brightly in this game, exactly what the Suns front office must have envisioned when they made the trade. As a Suns fan, though, it has to be said how frustrating it was to watch Luka Doncic repeatedly bump into smaller Suns players (poor Cam Payne was victimized multiple times) and then cry to the officials for a foul. But the Mavericks answered right back with a Dwight Powell jam off a nice lob from Doncic. Driving down the left side with less than fifteen seconds to play, the 6’10 or 6’11 (depends who you ask) scoring maestro rose up over the 6’5 Hardaway Jr. Kevin Durant began the contest continuing to be a hyper-efficient assasin in his third game for the club. One less heralded Sun, Josh Okogie, had an awful time of things, repeatedly left wide open from the corner and repeatedly bricking it. There should be little doubt now which of these teams has the upper hand on the other down the stretch, and I think the Suns would have no problem hooking up with these guys again in the postseason. catching fire from deep to the tune of 5/6 shooting from three point range. I really felt the Suns took the Mavericks’ best punches today, and they didn’t fold on the road.
