Phoenix Suns Prevail in Defensive Battle Against Rockets

Following a three-game hiatus, the Phoenix Suns emerged victorious tonight against the Houston Rockets, securing a 110-105 win.

Devin Booker was instrumental in propelling the Suns to an early lead, marking his sixth 20-point first quarter of the season. By halftime, Booker had already connected on five three-pointers, contributing significantly to the Suns’ lead, which swelled to as much as 21 points at one stage.

Despite entering halftime with a comfortable double-digit advantage, the Suns faced noticeable challenges in their shooting accuracy, aside from Devin Booker’s contributions. Royce O’Neale and Kevin Durant struggled, with O’Neale heading into the break shooting 1 for 8 from the field and Durant 3 for 8.
