Faced with the Hornets, who were certainly limited and in free fall (ten consecutive defeats), the Suns were able to appreciate the strength of their “Big Three”, the power of attraction of the three stars freeing up a lot of space.
“It changes everything, to be in full possession of our means” explains Devin Booker. “The offense was moving, the ball was going every which way and we were getting the best shot possible. »
After a frustrating period, marked by Bradley Beal's sprain, defeats and criticism from Eric Gordon on the team's lack of altruism, the Suns showed a big smile after this match against Charlotte.
It must be said that even if the opponent was limited, this meeting illustrated the firepower of the squad. Phoenix thus shot 62% success (46/74) and 60% at 3-points (18/30), with 34 assists on 46 baskets!
Bradley Beal: “There are a lot of threats on the floor, very versatile guys. And we can all shoot really well.”
By attracting assists, Bradley Beal, Devin Booker and Kevin Durant multiplied the gaps to Jusuf Nurkic (24 points) under the circle, or for Eric Gordon (21 points) and Grayson Allen (16 points) at 3-points.
“That’s what we want, that’s the beauty of it all” explains the former Wizard. “There are a lot of threats on the field, very versatile guys. And we can all shoot really well. »
Back after five (and a half) games of absence, Bradley Beal (6 points, 7 assists) did not have to force himself.
“I loved his game tonight”explained Frank Vogel “A lot of times (after an injury) guys tend to force it, but he let the game come to him. We have a selfless team. We can really be special.”
