The Phoenix Suns (21-22) are seventh in the Western Conference and are coming off a big loss against the Denver Nuggets (126-97) in their previous outing.
An injury hit the Suns' team has fallen down dramatically in the West as they have only two wins in their last ten games. Devin Booker, Chris Paul, and Deandre Ayton are all missing from the starting lineup.
Dario Saric and Torrey Craig from the starting five scored in double-digits, which wasn't enough. Nikola Jokic produced 21 points along with 18 massive rebounds and 9 assists to lead Denver to victory.

Anthony Edwards, D'Angelo Russell, and Rudy Gobert scored 20,19, and 16 points respectively, but it wasn't enough as Saddiq Bey and Bojan Bogdanovic scored a massive 31 and 27 points in Detroit's win. Karl Anthony Towns is yet to make a comeback for Minnesota as his presence will surely be missed.
