PHOENIX (AP) --- Jordan Goodwin scored 18 points in his return from a calf
injury, Devin Booker added 17 and the Phoenix Suns cruised past the Los Angeles
Clippers 133-110 on Tuesday night.
Phoenix shot 22 of 43 (51%) from 3-point range and had seven players score in
double digits, including five who came off the bench. Luke Kennard had 14
points, Jalen Green scored 13 and Collin Gillespie added 12 points and eight
assists while Khaman Maluach contributed 11 points and seven rebounds.
The Suns had a 17-point halftime lead and pushed the advantage to 91-59 with
four minutes left in the third quarter. They have a 3-2 record so far on their
season-long, seven-game homestand.
Goodwin --- who signed a $19 million, three-year deal to return to the Suns
during the offseason --- made 6 of 7 shots from beyond the arc in just 14
minutes. He missed the past three games.
The Clippers were coming off their first win in more than two weeks, but have
now lost eight of their last nine games. Rui Hachimura, Baba Miller and Darius
Garland all scored 13 points while Max Strus had 12.
Gillespie hit a 3-pointer from 39 feet just before the halftime buzzer to give
the Suns a 64-47 lead. Phoenix made 11 of 22 (50%) shots from beyond the arc
before the break.
Up next Clippers: Host Oklahoma City on Friday night. Suns: Host Charlotte on Thursday night. ___ See AP's full NBA coverage here |
