Phoenix ended the third quarter riding a close 94 - 90 lead, but were able to out - score the Kings 21 - 16 in the final quarter to secure the nine - point win on the road. The Suns were the superior shooting team in this one, going 49 percent from the field and 42 percent from the three - point line, while the Kings went 44 percent from the floor and 35 percent from beyond the arc. The Suns were led by the Morris twins, who combined for 37 points. Marcus Morris came off the bench, going 7 - for - 12 from the field and 6 - for - 7 from the three - point line to score a team - leading 20 points, while also recording a near double - double with nine rebounds. The nine rebounds matched a season - high for Marcus, as he notched one of his most well - rounded games of the year. Markieff Morris on the other hand was just as efficient, shooting 8 - for - 11 from the field and 1 - 1 from beyond the arc. He finished the game with 17 points in 30 minutes of action. Eric Bledsoe stuffed the stat sheet again, scoring 18 points (7 - 11 FG, 1 - 3 3Pt, 3 - 5 FT), while also contributing five rebounds and six assists. He's now averaging 16 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists on the year. Both Goran Dragic and Isaiah Thomas scored 16 and 17 points respectively. With DeMarcus Cousins sitting out, Rudy Gay and Darren Collison continued to be the most effective playmakers for the Kings. Collison had a team - high of 19 points (5 - 12 FG, 4 - 7 3Pt, 5 - 6 FT), while Gay finished with 16 (7 - 15 FG, 0 - 1 3Pt, 2 - 2 FT). Starting at center and receiving more minutes than he's accustomed to, Reggie Evans notched a surprise performance. He recorded 11 points and 16 rebounds, giving him his second double - double of the year. The Kings also received a lot of production of the bench with Derrick Williams, Omri Casspi and Carl Landry all reaching double figures in points. They scored 16, 11 and 12 points respectively. While the Kings offensive output was n't something to hang thier heads about, they just did n't have enough of a defensive presence to slow the Suns down. The Suns' next game will be on the road against the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday, while the Kings will be at home against the New York Knicks on Saturday.
