Devin Booker back, goes for 35 in Phoenix Suns comeback win over Portland Trail Blazers

Devin Booker returned from a sprained left knee that kept him out of Sunday's NBA All-Star game in leading Phoenix to 127-121 win Thursday night at Portland.

Scoring a game-high 35 points, the two-time All-Star banged knees with Derrick Jones Jr. and grabbed at his left knee with 1:10 remaining Thursday and Phoenix leading by nine. Booker limped off the court, but stayed in the game after the timeout.

All-Star Damian Lillard finished with 30 for the Trail Blazers (21-15).
