T.J. Warren was set to make his return from injury last game, but an early ejection caused his return to fall short. He came out of the gates firing against the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday and quickly showed Phoenix Suns fans what they had been missing in his five-game absence.
The man known as Tony Buckets was living up to his nickname early on as he already had nine points in just the first seven minutes of the game. By halftime, Warren already had 17 points, but the Suns were trailing the Spurs 59-46.
The Spurs grew their lead in the third quarter as any run the Suns went on seemed to be quickly matched throughout the contest.
