Very big final five minutes here in San Francisco. Golden State could move into a virtual tie with Phoenix (assuming Sacramento hangs on against the Suns) for fifth, while Philly with a win would keep pace with Boston for second in the East. Sixers clinging to a 3 point lead. – 12:16 AM

As I said earlier, #Kings give up looks.
Ross was so wide open on hitting his fifth 3 of the night.
However, #Suns aren’t getting consecutive stops.
Down 121-115 with 4:26 left to the NBA’s top scoring team. – 12:16 AM

Terrence Ross up to 27 points on 14 shots. Offense has been very productive since the wheels fell off but the defense has not. Game is still up for grabs, especially with Fox out, per the broadcast. – 12:15 AM

Suns trim the Kings lead to 6 points, Sacramento could use a timeout, but Mike Brown with just one remaining. With Kevin Huerter at the FT line, Phoenix burns one of their 4 remaining timeouts. – 12:15 AM

Looks like Davion Mitchell is going to be the guy to close for the injured De’Aaron Fox.
Love the choice by Brown. Mitchell has been running the 2nd unit really well lately & we know what he brings on defense. – 12:15 AM

The Suns shoot 58% from the field and just 14% from 3pt range in the first half. 42 points in the paint and 34 bench points.
Kings lucky to only trail 67-56 to be honest. – 11:03 PM

Booker with a Eurostep to rim, bucket and foul.
Maybe that’s the move that’ll lead to more free throws?
Just a thought.

Not seeing the same aggressiveness, amount of switching we saw in #Celtics #Kings. I know Joe Mazzulla was concerned about some of the #Pacers cross matches going into this one. – 7:53 PM

This past year has been really impressive for the Nets. They fired Steve Nash, traded Kyrie and KD, and had a washed Ben Simmons for 42 games.

If KD plays all seven remaining regular-season games starting on Wednesday against the Wolves, he will have played 10 total for the Suns.
Will KD go over or under 10 playoff games for the Suns this postseason? – 4:17 PM

If Kevin Durant does in fact return for the Timberwolves game on March 29, that’ll mark exactly 3 weeks since the injury and 20 days since he was given a 3-week re-evaluation period. The Suns have 3 more games between now and then against the Kings, 76ers and Jazz – 4:15 PM
