Suns have 10 TOs, are shooting 3-for-17 from 3, and Devin Booker and Kevin Durant have shot a combined 8-for-24 on a night where they don’t have Bradley Beal and Jusuf Nurkic. This team’s tendency to spiral with disastrous quarters continues to be strange – 9:11 PM

Houston’s confidence grew and grew throughout the second quarter after a rather empty start to the game. Suns have this way of snowball effect-ing themselves this year. This is another one. – 9:09 PM

On Eubanks play right there, he’s got to look to finish that. Is the pass there, sure, but the pass could be easier after finishing one of those rolls. – 9:02 PM

Since the loss on Christmas, the Suns have a 13.1 net rating when Jusuf Nurkic is on the floor. That’s the best among everyday Suns rotation players over that span. When he’s off the floor, it drops to a -1.0 net rating. Tough test tonight without him and Beal if both are out. – 2:25 PM
