Two teams with the unenviable task of traveling and lacing them up again less than 24 hours after dramatic games meet up at the Talking Stick Resort Arena on Sunday night when the Phoenix Suns host the Portland Trail Blazers.
The Suns made a happy flight home from Dallas early Sunday morning after Devin Booker beat the buzzer with a 19-footer that provided the difference in a 100-98 win over the playoff-contending Mavericks.
Meanwhile, the Trail Blazers arrived in Phoenix in a whole different frame of mind, having blown a 21-point lead at home in a 125-124 overtime loss to the Washington Wizards that featured a controversial finish.
