Norman Powell: “I was giving them a hard time with my minutes restriction today … see how it goes” in terms of this weekend’s regular-season-closing back-to-back vs. SAC and OKC. – 1:35 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU

Norman Powell BACK
theathletic.com/news/norman-po… – 1:34 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Norm Powell wanted to try to play through the fracture in Dallas in February. Said that teammates including PG and Kawhi were telling him to take his time during the last 8 weeks. He felt his conditioning was good in the second half, but felt the fatigue a little more after half – 1:33 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Powell felt good about his conditioning in the first half … but says second half was a little tough.
Powell went 6/6 FGs in first half, 0/4 FGs after halftime tonight vs Suns. – 1:33 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Norman Powell shared that Kawhi and PG encouraged Powell to take his time with coming back from injury, with all three on the shelf for all of March.
Powell adds that he tried to play in second Dallas game, and couldn’t do it. The next day, MRI revealed fracture. – 1:32 AM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Norman Powell tells @Andrew Greif he was meditating on the bench early on in the game: “I just focus on my breathing, different things I go over on in my head, come out of there cool, calm, collective, even keel.” – 1:32 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Norm Powell says playing off of Paul George still doesn’t seem real to him. pic.twitter.com/2chbIqGlIU – 1:30 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Norm Powell: Playing with PG still doesn’t seem real to me – 1:29 AM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
“Anything can happen…we’re all competing.”
Ish Wainright said the Suns all compete with each other regardless of roster spots, and no matter what happens with he and Iffe Lundberg on two-way contracts, that’s his brother.
“This is a brotherhood.” – 1:17 AM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Ish Wainright said he wasn’t really thinking about scoring a career high 20.
He was trying to have “the greatest comeback in #Suns history.”

Ish Wainright said the best part of his career night was having all the guys and the coaching staff in his corner. He could hear the guys on the bench like Devin Booker telling him, “Let it fly” – 1:14 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
“Just to get back to .500 with all the stuff we’ve been through, just a credit to the guys in the locker room … that’s a good accomplishment for this team.”

“That’s a lesson for anybody. You play it out and see what happens.” Monty Williams as #Suns cut 39-point deficit to four in 113-109 loss to #ClipperNation pic.twitter.com/BwuYh0p5SR – 1:12 AM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
“It’s just basketball at the end of the day.”
Aaron Holiday said once he’s out on the court and in the flow of the game, it’s easy to perform. It can be tough for some guys to stay ready with inconsistent minutes, but he doesn’t seem to feel that way – 1:12 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
It’s wild that Norman Powell has scored like this with Clippers and Ty Lue repeatedly says that he doesn’t have plays down for him just yet. – 1:10 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Ty Lue says only thing he wants to see, RE: Norm, is how rotations look with Luke Kennard back.
Lue expects Kennard back Saturday. So for you fantasy fiends, fire up the full roster for Saturday vs Kings and hit up @AndrewKSchlecht for the annual weird finale vs Thunder Sunday. – 1:09 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Ty Lue says he believes Luke Kennard’s hamstring issue will cost him just one game. – 1:09 AM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Ty Lue on the Clippers’ skin-of-their-teeth 113-109 victory, in which almost all of their 39-point lead evaporated: “You can never relax in the NBA, players are too good, coaches are too good.” – 1:08 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Tyronn Lue says he thought Clippers played a helluva game, just says team needs to do a better job of running through the finish line.
Notes the obvious that he wasn’t bringing starters back. – 1:08 AM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Ty Lue on Norm Powell’s presence tonight: “He feels good, no injuries. The way he played, good to see him on the floor… seeing him on the floor with PG and Reggie was encouraging.” – 1:06 AM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Paul George on the play-in next week: “Our season is on the line before playoffs start, so that part should take care of itself. We know what’s at stake.” – 1:04 AM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Monty Williams said Iffe Lundberg got the game ball after scoring his first #NBA points. #Suns – 1:02 AM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
“I’m kicking myself for not playing him in the first half.”
Monty Williams praised Aaron Holiday’s juice tonight and his willingness to take shots – 1:02 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Paul George said he’s fine playing off of the ball and that was one thing he wanted to do tonight in his first minutes with Norm Powell, letting Powell play with the ball to help him gain his rhythm. – 1:00 AM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Clippers 113, Suns 109 | Final | Paul George checks in, on Norm Powell: “I just thought we tried to play off one another. I wanted to get off the ball and let Norm get comfortable…. get adjusted, get acclimated.” – 1:00 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
4th quarter field goals in LA tonight:
– Ish Wainright: 8/12
– LA Clippers: 6/19 – 12:59 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Suns scored 48 4th quarter points tonight.
Only time in Clippers franchise history where they allowed more fourth quarter points was March 1989, when they allowed 50 in Golden State. – 12:56 AM Phoenix Suns @Suns

Norm Powell in his first game since Feb. 10:
24 points in 23 minutes on 10 shots. He shot 6-10 overall, 3-4 from three and 9-10 from the line. – 12:51 AM Los Angeles Clippers @LAClippers
CLIPPERS WIN!!! – 12:49 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
If you are waking up to a box score, this one is the definition of “not as close as the final score suggests”
But the final score IS a 113-109 LA win.
The good: game-high 24 points in 23 minutes in Norman Powell return.
The bad: Losing 35 points of a 39-point lead.
LAC: 40-40 – 12:48 AM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet

#Clippers 113 #Suns 109 Final.
Phoenix trailed by as many as 39.
FTs: Clippers 35-of-44. Suns 8-of-12. – 12:46 AM Christos Tsaltas @Tsaltas46
Iffe Lundberg had a really solid presence against the Clippers in LA. He was one of the reasons the Suns cut the Clips lead from 39 to 4.
3 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, +22 in 12 minutes. He’s earning his opportunities. #RallyTheValley – 12:46 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Clippers hang on … barely … and win 113-109 to improve to 40-40.
They once led Phoenix by 39. That was a brutal second half. – 12:46 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Suns shooting 9-of-16 from three in this fourth quarter alone. 46 points in the fourth. – 12:45 AM Phoenix Suns @Suns

Of course, Clippers allow *another* second chance 3.
LA lead down to 111-107 with 10.2 seconds left. pic.twitter.com/daTgne45Ec – 12:44 AM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Clippers fans are beside themselves right now.
#Suns down just four, 111-107, with 10.2 seconds left after Payne 3.
Timeout Clippers.
Wow. – 12:44 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Xavier Moon splits FTs, which is good enough for a three-possession lead of 111-104.
Suns use last timeout with 20.5 seconds left.
Thoroughly unserious finish to this game. Almost the bizarro world version of PG’s comeback vs Jazz last week. – 12:42 AM StatMuse @statmuse

Looks like Craig expected someone else to help him foul Moon.
Craig fouls out, and Cameron Payne re-enters. – 12:41 AM Phoenix Suns @Suns
That’s a strong Holiday. 💪 pic.twitter.com/CT0sGdzU7R – 12:40 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
LA lead down to 110-104 with 23.8 seconds left.
Did not expect to need a game reset but like Kevin Garnett…
– Each team with a timeout left
– Clippers with a challenge
– Both teams in bonus – 12:40 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Pretty wild this is still a game with 23 seconds left and the Suns down only six. – 12:38 AM Los Angeles Clippers @LAClippers

Covington misses both free throws. Not a great night for the #StartWriting crowd.
LA lead down to 110-102 with 26.5 seconds left. Kind of a disturbing performance once PG left the game. – 12:37 AM Los Angeles Clippers @LAClippers

A few missed shots from the Clippers and this could have become real interesting. Great fight from the guys at the end of the bench. – 12:34 AM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Payton getting minutes over Aaron Holiday after this would be malpractice. Won’t matter much come playoff time, but still – 12:33 AM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Looks like Clippers will hold on. Robert Covington and Isaiah Hartenstein hit two big 3’s to give them enough cushion. – 12:33 AM Phoenix Suns @Suns

Back-to-back multi 3 games from Isaiah Hartenstein, with the crowd chanting loudly every time he is behind the line… – 12:33 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Isaiah Hartenstein drills a three from the top of the arc to pad this shaky lead to 13 with 1:56 to play. – 12:33 AM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Clippers have come from 35 down and won this season. Now they have over two minutes left to hold on and not blow a 39-point lead. Phoenix is down 13 with 2:43 left. – 12:32 AM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Wainright 3.
This dude.
Career-high 17.
Covington answer. #Suns down 13. – 12:31 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Clippers have made 13 of their 30 shots in the second half. Seven first-half turnovers, and nine since. – 12:30 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Clippers have lost 28 points off of this lead.
Mann had to come back in for Powell, who is at 23 minutes.
This is BAD
LA finally ended a 16-5 Suns run and still lead 104-91 with 3:54 left.
But absolutely backing into the finish line. – 12:30 AM Phoenix Suns @Suns
A new career-high for @Ishmail Wainwright. 👏
He’s currently at 14 points. pic.twitter.com/cyTaFpnR2d – 12:29 AM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Suns are back within 11 after Aaron Holiday’s and-1. Only 4 minutes left, but nice fight from the reserves – 12:28 AM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Craig 3.
Lundberg steal.
Holiday drive and bucket.
Fouled.
#Suns have cut the lead down to 11 after Holiday 3.

It’s a 10-5 run for Suns now, featuring Clippers only scoring on the free throw line.

Happy for Ish Wainright, who’s having the best game of his NBA career so far: 14 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals, 6-10 FG, 2-4 3P and a +21 in a game the Suns are down by 21 – 12:21 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Terance Mann night over as Xavier Moon comes in
At some point, I’d expect Brandon Boston to grab Powell – 12:20 AM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Wainright career-high 12 points. #Suns down 20. – 12:18 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
This is Robert Covington’s first and-one as a Clipper, and only his second this season. – 12:17 AM Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
As you would expect, this group is not just going to sleepwalk through the rest of this game. That’s an 18-7 Suns run to cut the deficit down to 19. – 12:15 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Suns on their third extended run, this time 12-2, and what once was a 39-point lead is down to 94-75 with 7:59 left.
Buckets have dried up significantly. Points available at the line, but Clippers not playing well to finish this out right now. – 12:14 AM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Suns have cut the deficit to 19 with Aaron Holiday, Ish Wainright and Iffe Lundberg on the floor, be still my beating heart – 12:14 AM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Biyombo and Wainright got the #Suns making this look respectable.
Both have 10. #Suns down 19 after trailing by as many as 39.
Timeout #Clippers with 7:59 left.
Booker and Crowder jumped off the bench. – 12:13 AM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
The Clippers’ one-time 39-point lead is down to 19, at 94-75, with 8 minutes to play in the fourth quarter. – 12:13 AM Los Angeles Clippers @LAClippers

Clippers went on 11-0 run, then Suns eventually answered with runs of 11-1 and 10-6.
Still likely a #BubbleWrap fourth quarter ahead with LA up 87-61 through three quarters of play.
Free throws:
– Phoenix Suns (5/9)
– Paul George (9/11) – 12:03 AM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Clippers 87, Suns 61 | End 3 | PG’s got 19, Norm’s got 18 and the Clips are shooting 48.2% as a team.
Cam Payne’s got 10 and the Suns are shooting 31.6%. – 12:03 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
For bookkeeping purposes… Clippers went 3:40 between field goals before Jackson floater – 12:00 AM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Ice bath will be necessary for several Clippers after this one. – 11:56 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif

As for Paul, Ayton and Crowder, Williams said it looked like Ayton did same thing he did in Detroit, but not that serious.
Ayton missed 7 games with right that ankle sprain.
Crowder sat OKC game with ankle soreness. As for Paul, Williams said #Suns wanted to give thumb a rest. – 11:53 PM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Want to clarify/correct what Williams said about Booker (low back soreness) OUT tonight
Said Booker has “been in the training room a lot more. Getting more and more stuff on his back, legs. So we just thought let’s give him a night to get back to somewhat solid as we can.” #Suns – 11:51 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Mann and Powell are in the game – 11:50 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Clippers got the lead to 39 before four scoreless possessions, three of which were turnovers (the other an unsuccessful alley-oop to George).
Tyronn Lue calls timeout with 6:27 left in third quarter and LA up 75-41. – 11:45 PM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Tonight is kinda the best-case scenario for a game like this, because you know this petty Suns group won’t forget it if they wind up seeing LAC in the first round – 11:43 PM Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
Paul George remains that dude. He’s been terrific running the offense tonight. – 11:41 PM Los Angeles Clippers @LAClippers

#Suns timeout after Batum layup. Down 71-36 with 9:09 left in 3rd. – 11:37 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Paul George right arm dexterity might have been enhanced during his time out. Another touch pass, this time leading to a Mook corner 3.
And then he makes a layup!
LA with largest lead of game at 71-36 with 9:09 left in third quarter. – 11:37 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
So…
Reggie Jackson is NOT wearing goggles – 11:35 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Terance Mann is on bench talking to Luke Kennard, so that’s a good enough sign. – 11:33 PM Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA

Yeah so all I really need to see from Paul George is to make some layups. He’s only 1/3 FGs inside arc tonight after missing all 8 2s Sunday.
But everything else is there. Rebounds, dimes, steals, blocks, 3s.
Clippers outscored Suns by 27 in his 18:36. – 11:28 PM Los Angeles Clippers @LAClippers

TMann wound up in a heap at midcourt, being tended to by trainers. Teammates gathered around. Ran into a sturdy screen from Biyombo, needed a moment … up and to the locker room.
This is a rough one with this and two more regular-season games before the play-in. – 11:19 PM Mark Medina @MarkG_Medina
Terance Mann had been on the ground hurting after getting hit off of Bismack Biyombo’s moving screen. It took a while for Mann to get up – 11:18 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Biyombo delivered a helluva hard screen on Terance Mann, who didn’t see it coming near halfcourt. After several moments on the floor, Mann got up and walked off the floor but clearly had to shake it off. – 11:18 PM Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
Jazz beat Thunder 137-101.
Jared Butler (career-high) and Jordan Clarkson (team-high) both had 10 assists — it’s the first time since 2019 and second time in the Quin Snyder era the Jazz have had two players with 10 assists in the same game.

The Utah Jazz defeat the Oklahoma City Thunder 137-101. Utah moves to 48-32 on the season. This all but locks up the five seed for Utah.

Powell ends 7-0 Suns run with contested right corner 3 from Batum
Getting microwave buckets and leading all scorers with 13 points. – 11:09 PM Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
That batch of turnovers was ugly but outside of that the flow hasn’t been too terrible offensively. Suns can definitely get back in this with how they’re playing imo. – 11:08 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Norm Powell has now made his first five shots, his latest a catch-and-shoot corner three. – 11:08 PM Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA
What do you think the moneyline will be on the Wolves-Clippers 7-8 play-in game?

Kawhi Leonard on the Clippers bench for their game vs Suns. He has occasionally shared his observations with teammates. Otherwise, mostly just watching the action – 11:07 PM Sarah Todd @NBASarah
Well, that was fun guys. Probably going to need to do this again on Sunday when the Jazz play the Blazers in the final game of the season.
We’ll see who plays in the Suns game. – 11:06 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
The Suns have scored, and then they scored again after Cameron Johnson intercepted a telegraphed Paul George pass.
Tyronn Lue calls timeout with LA lead down to 47-27 with 5:19 left in first half. – 11:05 PM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
So Norman Powell. First six minutes back: 10 points, 4-4, 2-2 from deep, 4 rebounds … +13. – 11:04 PM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
Johnson steal, layup in transition, fouled by Batum.
Clippers timeout. #Suns down 20 with 5:19 left in 1st half. – 11:04 PM Mark Medina @MarkG_Medina
Scottie Pippen has a courtside seat for the Clippers game against the undermanned Suns. Looks like he’s enjoying the game much more than “The Last Dance.” – 11:02 PM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin

Clippers second unit is going to be what stresses teams out next week. – 11:00 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
The Clippers are on a 21-0 run over the last four and a half minutes to lead 47-22. Only three turnovers for LAC + 16-of-29 shooting, while Phoenix shoots 30%, will do that. – 11:00 PM Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Utah’s winning tonight against OKC’s G-League team, which all but locks them up for the 5 seed.
5. UTA – 48-32
6. DEN – 47-33
Utah’s magic number to be the 5th seed is 1. Another Utah win or Denver loss after tonight will guarantee it. Utah plays a resting PHX, then POR. – 10:59 PM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Clippers 21, Suns 0 this second quarter, with 7:09 to play.
Clippers 47, Suns 22 overall – 10:59 PM Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
It is 21-0 Clippers in the first five minutes of the second quarter – 10:59 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Isaiah Hartenstein hits a three. He lobbied Ty Lue last week in Chicago to shoot more from deep by showing Lue video of an 8-three-pointer night in the G League. – 10:58 PM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin

Now it’s Isaiah Hartenstein that takes a bad fall on a dunk attempt. JaVale McGee adamant he didn’t do anything to cause harm and welcomes the official’s review – 10:54 PM Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
McGee going from outside the key to the other side of the rim to block that is such an athletic play. His mobility is unreal. – 10:54 PM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
#Suns challenge. – 10:54 PM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Kid you not, there’s a fan here yelling about wanting Isaiah to “shoot the 3!”
Led tonight’s Clippers notes with that:
ocregister.com/2022/04/06/cli… – 10:54 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Isaiah Hartenstein is the second Clipper this quarter to go for a dunk and be knocked down hard, landing awkwardly. Even Covington winced seeing Hartenstein fall. – 10:53 PM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Clippers on an 11-0 run to start this 2Q and their lead is up to 15. Game got to Danger Zone territory pretty quick – 10:53 PM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
That basket is cursed or sumthin. Isaiah Hartenstein just rose up for a dunk, got fouled by McGee and hit the deck hard. Play under review. Hart is up, hands on hips, slowly making his way back to the bench. – 10:53 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Meanwhile, Norm Powell is 4-for-4 with 10 points after Paul George drove and dished to Powell for an open shot. The two are learning one another on the fly here with three games remaining in the season. – 10:52 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
The Clippers hadn’t seen Norm Powell and Paul George together before tonight at all, to hear Ty Lue say it. George’s drive to draw defenders and find Powell from the corner is a window into what that combination could be like in the postseason. – 10:51 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Robert Covington thankfully is OK and shooting free throws. Foul by Torrey Craig was ruled a common foul. – 10:49 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Torrey Craig and Robert Covington dapped one another at midcourt during this review, which determines the foul a common foul on Craig. – 10:49 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Robert Covington tried to throw down a fastbreak dunk buthit the floor hard after Torrey Craig went for a block from behind. Covington got up and flexed his elbow area. Play is being reviewed. – 10:48 PM Mark Medina @MarkG_Medina
Robert Covington took a scary fall on that dunk attempt. He’s back up, but that could’ve been bad. Officials reviewing Torrey Craig’s foul – 10:47 PM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
RoCo intercepted a pass and drove for a dunk, met Torrey Craig at his apex, fell hard, grabbing at his head.
But RoCo is up, shaking his right arm. Yikes. – 10:47 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Robert Covington gets up after a dangerous foul by Torrey Craig.
Play under review. – 10:47 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Oh no, Robert Covington takes a hard, hard fall on a dunk attempt in transition after being hit by Torrey Craig. Ball stuck in between rim and backboard. He gets up and flexes his elbow…appears OK. – 10:47 PM Los Angeles Clippers @LAClippers
End of the first. pic.twitter.com/KUbTR5Krxz – 10:46 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
The Clippers have run three handoffs from Hartenstein to Norm Powell already to get Powell moving by the time he gets the ball. – 10:46 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Norman Powell has hit his first two shots, including a 3. And Paul George had 10 points in his first 10 minutes. George and Powell are now on the floor together in their first game together at start of the second. – 10:45 PM Phoenix Suns @Suns

About to check in: Isaiah Hartenstein … and Norman Powell. – 10:36 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Reggie Jackson and Paul George have 16 points, something of a bounce back start after they struggled to a degree Sunday vs Pelicans.

Elfrid Payton gets the nod again at backup PG first – 10:30 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Ivica Zubac swats Landry Shamet. I feel like Zu might be texting Landry some good-natured trash talk after that one. Those two were real close as Clips. – 10:29 PM Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
Some good shotmaking for the Clippers early on. Five field goals and zero assists. PG13 feeling like he’s back in the WCF again.
Batum picking up Payne full court has led to some less than inspiring offense in other areas. – 10:26 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Paul George is 3-5 for 10 of the Clippers’ first 16 points. He’s looked sharp from the start. He’s also gotten to the line, which isn’t something that usually happens this early. (Though he’s certainly told officials he deserved at least one more call.) – 10:25 PM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Things I’m keeping an eye on tonight:
1) Cam Johnson shooting all the shots
2) Mikal Bridges’ minute total
3) Aaron Holiday/Elfrid Payton/Iffe Lundberg backup PG minutes
4) How Paul George and Norm Powell look – 10:25 PM Duane Rankin @DuaneRankin
#Suns started Cameron Payne, Landry Shamet, Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson and JaVale McGee.
My apologies.
Working on this story as well as trying to keep track of game, interviewing folks, ect. ec.t

Suns coach Monty Williams on Devin Booker not getting enough MVP consideration: “How many guys with his numbers and our record weren’t the MVP? I’ve heard in Book’s case it’s because he plays with Chris. That’s kind of silly because Harden won one playing with Chris.” – 10:13 PM Phoenix Suns @Suns

Isaiah Hartenstein works with Jay Larranaga, advocate for the center’s 3-point ability. Ty Lue on his proof-of-concept 3-point barrage in the 2019 G League Finals: “It was on Jay Larranaga’s computer, (Isaiah) was showing me he had eight 3s. I said seven & he said, ‘No, eight.’” pic.twitter.com/wdhL1xeofx – 9:25 PM Phoenix Suns @Suns

Suns’ Monty Williams: “There’s a lot to be gained from tonight” in terms of playing time for guys who don’t typically get a ton. “But we want to win the game.” – 8:35 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Monty Williams says that Deandre Ayton tweaked his ankle last night vs Lakers, which played a role in sitting him tonight.
Williams also added that he didn’t want to rest Chris Paul, but has to be smart.
“We want to win, and he gives us the best chance to win.” – 8:33 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Luke Kennard is out tonight with a right hamstring issue. – 8:32 PM Gerald Bourguet @GeraldBourguet
Monty Williams said Deandre Ayton tweaked his ankle a bit last night like he did in Detroit, though it’s nowhere near as serious. Suns are resting 4 starters because of things that have “piled up on them” at this time of year – 8:32 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
Norm Powell will play off the bench. He ran with reserves yesterday in practice. Ty Lue says Powell might start in the second half to get more time Paul George. Those two have had “zero” time playing together, even in practice, Lue said. – 8:14 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
