5 takeaways as Suns enter All-Star break with a 116-107 loss Thursday to the Clippers at Footprint Center.
Josh Okogie scored a team-high 24 points for the Suns . Devin Booker went for 19 points on 6-of-16 shooting, Deandre Ayton added 18 points and Terrence Ross chipped in 16 in his Suns debut.
“I’m going to follow the training staff and go on the schedule they got me on,” Durant said. “So hopefully soon after the break.”The NBA sent out a schedule notice during Thursday’s game that ESPN is no longer showing the Bulls-Nets game Feb. 24 in Chicago and will instead televise the Thunder-Suns game at 8 p.m. in Phoenix.The Suns are playing the team Durant started his NBA career with as the Seattle SuperSonics move to OKC in Durant’s second NBA season.
He scored 15 points in the first half on 6-of-8 shooting, going 3-of-5 from 3, to mark his fourth straight double-figure scoring effort. Both are trying to fill the void of Mikal Bridges going to Brooklyn in the blockbuster Durant trade, but Okogie has been the more productive offensive player of the two as of late.The Clippers may never see the Durant version of the Suns this regular season.Would you play your stars in that one even if it determined a higher seed? The Sun are 2-1 versus the Clippers.
