We nearly saw the Suns team of old before things started snowballing in the fourth quarter.
Still, you’ll take 5 wins in a row and some very positive signs: arizonasports.com/story/2886399/… – 2:04 AM

I’ll take the L for not asking Cameron Payne about scoring a career-high 24 in initial interview.
But got a chance to redeem myself. Asked him couple of questions as he was heading out.

Letting go of the rope. For the first time this season, the Kings looked like they would feel the cold sting of a blowout loss. And then they fought back. It still goes down as a 109-104 loss, but wow. Here are six quick thoughts from a truly manic performance by the Kings. – 12:29 AM

Kings lose. I’m not reading into the near miracle comeback other than end of bench guys were ready to play hard when rotation players weren’t.
Ugly 3rd quarter is haunting. Old demons return. Love the fight at the end but, like I’ve said all season, moral victories mean nothing. – 12:25 AM

Kings had a wiiiide open rim run for Metu, never threw the pass (maybe defensible, since they needed 3), then threw it when he wasn’t open anymore and ended up turning it over.

Tyrese Haliburton scored 11 of his 17 points in the 4th quarter yesterday and really was the reason the Kings had a chance to win.
Going to be tough on a b2b to win without him. Absolutely need Fox (and Mitchell) to step up. – 8:42 PM

So he’s asking the #Suns backup big to do the same in matching up with the #Kings size and athleticism with Richaun Holmes and Tristian Thompson. #Suns #Kings – 8:36 PM
