After acquiring Tyler Johnson in a trade with the Miami Heat two days ago, the newest member of the Phoenix Suns was set to make his debut against the Golden State Warriors on Friday night.
The Suns were without their two leading scorers in Devin Booker (hamstring tightness) and T.J. Warren (ankle soreness) as well as De’Anthony Melton (ankle sprain) and went with a starting lineup of Elie Okobo, Josh Jackson, Mikal Bridges, Dragan Bender and Deandre Ayton for a second straight game.
It only took a few minutes into the game for that lineup to catch fire and start dominating the defending champions.
