Devin Booker may have initially thought Phoenix took its first loss of the season too much to heart.
"It was like we got eliminated from the playoffs or something," the All-Star guard said.
Then he found a positive in it.
"I'm not too mad at that," Booker continued. "You have a lot of people that care, but it is a long season. So we have to understand that."
How the Suns responded to Saturday's 3-point loss at Sacramento with an 116-100 win Sunday over the Kings in the second of a back-to-back at Golden 1 Center may have been more impressive than the win itself.
