The Phoenix Suns took down the Sacramento Kings on Friday, 105 - 103. Phoenix (16 - 34) saw strong play from sophomore Devin Booker in the win, as Booker led the team with 33 points on 11 - of - 24 shooting. Per usual, strong backcourt play kept the Suns in the game, as point guard Eric Bledsoe added another 20 points. The duo of guards contributed seven of Phoenix's 12 three - pointers on the night. Forward T.J. Warren was also an integral piece of the win, as the young wing scored 21 points for the Suns. Though the team shot just over 41 percent from the field, they were able to compensate with stellar shooting from beyond the arc and at the free - throw line. Sacramento (19 - 31) left the game with a disappointing result, as the team needed a win to stay close to Denver for eighth in the Western Conference. The team was narrowly edged out on Friday, despite shooting almost four percent better from the field than their opponent. Even in the loss, center DeMarcus Cousins was able to make a considerable impact. Cousins posted a triple - double, scoring 22 points and dishing 12 assists while pulling down 12 rebounds. Off the bench, point guard Ty Lawson showed flashes of his former self, scoring 18 points in 28 minutes. The Kings will host the Warriors on Saturday, while Phoenix will host the Bucks.
