The Phoenix Suns and the Los Angeles Lakers renewed their rivalry on Tuesday night as two of the hottest teams tipped-off at Talking Stick Resort Arena. The Suns entered the game at 6-3 and the Lakers at 7-2 as it was the first game in the Suns-Lakers series where both teams entered the game with a winning percentage above .500 since April 7, 2012.
It was no longer Charles Barkley vs James Worthy or Steve Nash vs Kobe Bryant, but the new faces of the franchises in Devin Booker and LeBron James took the court as the fans filled the stadium for the highly-anticipated matchup.
