Devin Booker wasn't going to let the Phoenix Suns fall into an 0-2 hole.
That run carried right over into the second half. The Suns opened the third on a 14-4 run, which suddenly gave them a 10-point lead. That completed a massive 22-point swing over about nine minutes of game time, and marked the Suns’ first lead since the opening minutes of the game.
The Suns carried a five-point lead into the fourth, thanks largely to Booker’s 18 points in the period. That quickly turned into a double-digit lead after back-to-back buckets from Chris Paul early in the quarter. From there, the Suns had an answer to every small run the Clippers tried to make. Westbrook cut the game to six points with just three minutes left, but Paul answered with a fadeaway bucket of his own instantly.
