Devin Booker and Kevin Durant combined for 73 of Phoenix's 129 points in Thursday's Game 3 win to take back homecourt advantage.
“I remember we ran plays to set a screen for me and I ended up catching it at the top of the key, but I saw the whole defense kind of looking at me and Book was bringing it up,” Durant said. “He got the one-on-one with their whole defense having their back turned and he was able to get to his move. He had some help at the rim, but that’s nothing for him. He ran back and told me that I created that when I probably didn’t create that.
The Suns will look to take a commanding 3-1 lead in Saturday’s Game 4 at Crypto.com Arena with Booker simply on fire right now and the Clippers uncertain whether they’ll get Kawhi Leonard back after he missed Game 3 with a right knee sprain. Game 5 is Tuesday back in Phoenix.
