Just about every night of the Phoenix Suns season so far has been a rollercoaster ride.
Luckily for the Valley, that ride has taken this team to new heights.
After a comeback win over the Miami Heat at home on Wednesday night, the Suns are now 4-0 in clutch games, or games within 5 points in the final 5 minutes. If you’re counting, that means fully half of the Suns’ games so far have qualified as clutch. And they’re undefeated.
In today’s episode, we take a closer look at how the Suns ran through Kevin Durant late to pull out a victory, plus what Mike Budenholzer and KD said about the win.
But first, we look at the comeback that put the Suns in position to close out a sixth straight win. After falling down 15 in the third quarter, the Suns reeled off an 11-1 run to narrow the gap and set themselves up for their final push. That run was capped off by a massive and-1 from Devin Booker, before KD took the team home late.
The Suns are already keeping us on our toes, but the payoff has been sweet.
