Game Preview

The Suns played four straight games at home, winning two of them. Their most recent contest, which ended with a 119-117 victory over the Clippers, is among them. The franchise from Arizona came back following a 23-point deficit to win.

Kevin Durant ended the night with 34 points and 7 boards. The former NBA MVP is the sixth-best scorer in the league, with 26.9 points per game.

The reigning MVP, Nikola Jokic, is currently averaging a triple-double: 28.9 points, 12.7 boards, and 10.4 assists. He also shoots 57.8% from the field. The Joker is having a historic season but isn’t the top favorite for Most Valuable Player honors.  

His Nuggets beat the Kings on Wednesday night, 116-110, reaching their 40th triumph of the season. For the moment, Denver is third in the West, leveled with the Lakers.
