Trail Blazers snap Suns' three-game winning streak

Phoenix Suns coach Igor Kokoskov and players Devin Booker, Mikal Bridges and Kelly Oubre Jr. talk about Saturday's loss at Portland and Sunday's game at Golden State.

PORTLAND — Igor Kokoskov knew Portland wanted to bounce back from Thursday’s overtime loss to Oklahoma City and didn’t want to lose to a team that’s last in the Western Conference.

In short, the Phoenix Suns coach called it a “must-win” for the Trail Blazers.

Portland played like it in beating Phoenix, 127-120, Saturday night before a sellout crowd of 19,851 at Moda Center to snap the Suns’ three-game winning streak.
