Five takeaways as Devin Booker posted his second 50-point game this season in leading Phoenix to a comeback thriller Saturday over New Orleans.
Booker said Phoenix doesn’t win without Okogie, who also took on the challenge of guarding Williamson.
Paul hit 5-of-7 from deep with two huge ones coming in the fourth on his 18-point night. Mikal Bridges helped slow down CJ McCollum, who scored just three of his 27 points in the second half. Bismack Biyombo filled in nicely for the injured Deandre Ayton with 11 points on 5-of-6 shooting He put the Suns up for good on a lob finish, 109-107, with 4:11 left in the fourth.The All-Star guard emphatically delivered when Phoenix was on its way to suffering an embarrassing loss at home to a team that was having too much fun at the expense of the Suns.
That’s out of his comfort zone, but Williams wants other guys like Bridges and Cam Johnson more comfortable making plays to prepare Phoenix for the postseason. Plus, this will save Paul’s legs for when the games really, really count. Handling the ball takes more out of guys than one realizes.Paul is now in a situation where the Suns are asking him to be ready to shoot 3s off ball movement when he’s made a living dissecting defenses with his passing and playmaking as the floor general.
