Eight Suns Score in Double-Figures, Fall to Nuggets in Final Seconds
The Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets fought into overtime in their first meeting of the season, so it was no surprised that the two teams had another back-and-forth battle on Monday night as they tipped-off in Phoenix.
Ricky Rubio returned to the Suns lineup after missing the previous game with an illness and his impact was instantly felt. The point guard got things started with a midrange jumper as the Suns took the first lead. However, the rest of the first quarter seemed to belong to the Nuggets.
