The Phoenix Suns and Houston Rockets played each other for the second time in the span of eight days yesterday, so of course some chippiness was involved.
Last night, Phoenix prevailed with a 110-105 home victory to avenge last week’s 114-110 defeat in Houston.
Things got most heated with just under seven minutes to go when Devin Booker and rookie Cam Whitmore, who had been talking to each other all game, started a scuffle. Booker was walking down the court after making his sixth 3 of the night and bumped shoulders with Whitmore.
