The Phoenix Suns have 28 wins on the season. Ask a Suns fan which one of the 28 is his or her favorite and you’ll get a range of answers.
But no matter how many Phoenix faithful you’d query, I’d bet nobody would pick Tuesday night’s 106-102 win over the Brooklyn Nets at Mortgage Matchup Center.
The Suns were extremely shorthanded as Devin Booker, Jalen Green, Collin Gillespie and Isaiah Livers all missed the contest with an assortment of injuries and sicknesses. The game itself was a hard watch thanks to sloppy play, which included 37 combined turnovers and curious officiating.
And let’s face it, any game against the Nets that is still in the balance in the last minute can be nerve-wracking.

But a win is a win. No excuses. No asterisks.
This group of Phoenix Suns continues to find ways to win when challenged.
The current challenge? They can’t make 3-point shots. Phoenix hit 5-of-20 from deep. Think about that.
In today’s 3-crazed NBA, the Suns won a game putting up numbers from behind the arc that you might have seen in 1986. It’s the first time Phoenix has won a game with five or fewer made 3s since 2017.
The team is hitting 20% from 3 over its last nine quarters of basketball — the duration since Devin Booker exited the Atlanta game with a sprained ankle.
But like the injuries, this is temporary, too. The Suns will be closer to whole soon.
And with three games remaining on this crucial homestand, Jordan Ott’s team just has to keep its head down and continue to invent different ways to win games — something they’ve been very good at this season.
