The Nets haven’t won a game since Kevin Durant sprained his right MCL and at times, the team has looked bad. Despite being in all three games until the fourth quarter, for some reason, Brooklyn has been unable to execute in the final period. It seems that most of that stems from Durant’s absence.
The Suns have had their share of bad injury luck as well as Devin Booker, arguably their best player, has missed the last 11 games because of a groin injury. Booked has missed 16 games this season and Phoenix is only 3-13 in those contests. Chris Paul is listed as questionable as of right now so if he plays, that could be the boost that the Suns need for this game.
This game can be seen locally on Bally Sports Arizona (Suns) and nationally on TNT.
