The Portland Trail Blazers defeated the Phoenix Suns 121-105 on Tuesday night, avenging a blowout loss over the weekend and snapping a two-game losing streak overall. The win, coupled with a loss from the Memphis Grizzlies, pulls the teams to within 3.5 games of Memphis for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference.
While Devin Booker scored a game-high 29 points to lead the Suns, Portland featured a much more balanced attack, with all five starters scoring at least 16 points—and four going for over 20. Damian Lillard led the way with 25, his highest point total since returning from injury last week.
