Phoenix Suns at LA Clippers
· National Basketball AssociationBooker and Durant lead Suns to 125-1119 comeback win over Clippers
Booker made a corner 3-pointer to put Phoenix ahead 108-105 with 5:15 remaining as the Suns scored 73 points in the second half to take their second win in eight days at the Clippers’ new arena.
Booker and Durant got going in the third to get the Suns back in it, combining for 20 points. Royce O'Neale, who finished with 21 points, and Ryan Dunn, who had 16, also had some timely long-distance shots after the break.
James Harden had 25 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists, but Los Angeles faltered again one night after giving away a late lead in a one-point loss at Portland.
Clippers: After being good at limiting turnovers and moving the ball around in the first half, Los Angeles got stagnant and sloppy to give away a winnable game.
