It seems like almost every year the Phoenix Suns have at least one game in which someone unexpectedly steps up and has a career game. Probably the most famous of these is Tony Delk’s legendary 53 point performance against the Kings way back on Jan. 2, 2001. The Suns lost the game but Delk, an NBA journeyman combo guard whose career high ppg average for a season was 12.3 points (2001), played himself into being more than just an obscure footnote player for the Suns. On that night he could do no wrong and became a part of Suns history with what is still the 6th highest scoring game ever by a Suns player.
