Phoenix Suns Score 16th Straight Victory Against Brooklyn Nets

The Phoenix Suns have been on the roll since the beginning of the season, and they recently extended their winning streak to 16 games in a row. They scored a 113-107 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday night, but could their run of luck soon come to an end? The Nets couldn’t come out victorious despite Kevin Durant’s best efforts. He was the game’s highest scorer with a total of 39 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists, but the Suns had a better track record overall. Devin Booker scored 30 points for his side, closely followed by Christ Paul with 22, eight rebounds, and five assists. It was a big night for Paul, who made history as the first player in NBA history to reach 20,000 points, 10,000 assists, and 5,000 rebounds. The Suns are set to face the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night, and Booker and his teammates are looking forward to this match-up because they happen to be two of the top teams in the NBA right now. “I’m looking forward to it, man. Obviously not a make-it-or-break-it game, not a playoff game, but we know it’s going to be high-energy, two-best records in the NBA. It’s going to a high-intensity, fun game,” said Booker after the game.
