In the second quarter the Thunder’s second unit helped deliver a response punch, scoring 40 points in the first half alone to make sure it was still within striking distance at halftime, down by only eight.

Devin Booker on how common tweaking ankles is in a workout: “It’s happened to me before in the summer. Especially Kev, he goes full speed in every workout that he does. Things like that can happen. I thought he slipped at first but you’ve obviously seen the video. He turned it.” – 12:25 AM

I asked Monty Williams about how he’d chalk up Devin Booker being on a tear the last 4 games, and he said with a smirk, “Just coaching.”
Then added that’s just what he does and the Suns don’t take it for granted.

Terrence Ross is such a smooth athlete with a fluid release. He’s been in the 0th %ile in “openness rating” on 3s the last few years, but he still hits at a high clip because he doesn’t get rushed and can still shoot over most contests. Valuable skill to have with this group – 10:52 PM

Been working on Kevin Durant ankle story.

He went to drive baseline during his pregame workout and twisted his left ankle. Fell down.

He hasn’t made his way to the bench. #Suns – 9:38 PM
