At halftime, Devin Booker had 27 of the Suns 43 total points. By mid-third quarter, it was 35 of their 55 points. By the end of the third, he was at 47 of their 74.
Meanwhile, the Suns were down by about 20 for just about the while second half, so the game was meaningless except for Booker’s second-ever 50+ point game.
None of the other Suns players could hit a shot, or at least that’s what it felt like. Mikal Bridges and Jimmer Fredette combined to miss three straight open threes in the corner that were spoon fed by a triple-teamed Booker, then Elie Okobo missed one from the top of the key.
