Photo by Christian Petersen/Getty ImagesWhen the deficit hit 26 with 10 minutes left in the game, it looked like the Suns would set another bad milestone by becoming the first team in 48 years to lose five straight games by 18 or more points.
But then, rookie point guard Elie Okobo had a very good fourth quarter, and the Suns avoided another blowout loss by losing to Oklahoma City ONLY by seven points, 117-110.
Elie Okobo had by far his best game in the United States, including Summer League, preseason and regular season with 18 points (3 of 6 on threes), seven assists (versus only 3 turnovers) and five rebounds in 31 minutes of play.
