Kevin Durant sees a loaded roster and all the possibilities that come with it for the Phoenix Suns.
Devin Booker scored 35 points and matched his career high with six 3s, Durant added 20 points in his second game with Phoenix and the Suns beat the Chicago Bulls 125-104 on Friday night.
"We've got a lot of big names," Durant said. "We've got a lot of guys that have done so much in this league so far. But it's about how we come together as a group, and I think this is a tightknit group, a tightknit organization. We'll figure it out along the way." "We have games left to find this chemistry and communication before playoffs start," Booker said. "We're trying to not take any day off. We've had extended practices every day, going over both sides of the ball and game plans and schemes — things that we've been doing for a few years here.
"I think we have to take more 3s," coach Billy Donovan said. "We've to change our shot profile when you go against an elite team. They took twice as many 3s as we did, and they made nearly three times as many as we did."The Suns went from leading by 13 in the first half to trailing by four at the break. But they outscored Chicago 34-21 in the third and reeled off 10 in a row midway through the fourth to break open a seven-point game.
