Game Recap: Booker and Beal combine for 55 points as the Suns edge an undermanned Blazers team, 127-116

The Phoenix Suns squeeze out a victory over the Portland Trailblazers 127-116.

In what was a sluggish start by the Suns, but Devin Booker and Grayson Allen helped lift the offense with 15 points each to end the first half. Along with Allen getting two blocks and Jusuf Nurkic grabbing 10 rebounds, the Suns carried a 71-61 lead into halftime.

Booker and Bradley Beal were getting to their spot all night, and with Allen adding 20 points, the Suns fire-power was a lot to handle for the Blazers. Never surrendering, even down by as much as 17 in the third quarter, the Blazers competed to the very end.
