When Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal are all hitting their shots, it’s almost impossible to stop the Phoenix Suns.
The star trio combined for 68 points, spearheading a much-needed 123-115 victory over Trae Young and the visiting Atlanta Hawks on Friday, January 10.
Beal, who came off the bench for the third straight game, had 25 markers while Durant added 23 and Booker finished with a 20-point, 12-assist double-double.
It was just the Suns’ second win in the last seven games, aiming to find consistency after a strong 8-1 to start the season that quickly turned to 9-18 in their last 27 games.
Meanwhile, Trae Young took the scoring cudgels for the Hawks with 21 markers as Atlanta dropped to 19-19 in a loss.
The Suns next host the Utah Jazz (9-26) while the Hawks return home to face the Houston Rockets (25-12)
