Dirty evening for the Suns. Drunk by Rockets who end the regular season very hard, the men of Phoenix also lost Kevin during, victim of a sprain during the 3rd quarter. This heavy defeat places them 2 victories behind 10th place, and the play-in is moving away …
It is not good to be a fan of the Suns. If Monday is the best day of the week, we can exceptionally understand that it is not this week for those who support Phoenix. Getting up, seeing that the team was rotted by Rockets guided by a brilliant Jalen Green (33 points, 27 minutes), and that Kevin Durant was injured … No, force the team to you.
To talk about the match? Come on, but there is little to say. The Rockets were already led 30 points to the break. Dillon Brooks was excluded after heating the referees a little too much following a muscular exchange with Kevin Durant, who received him with a technical fault. The Slim Reaper did not finish the meeting, injured in the ankle following an unfortunate support on the foot of Jabari Smith during a drive. Unable to put weight on his foot, he spun in the locker room.
Kevin Durant rolls his ankle on this play — Hope he is OK. 🙏

Could it be that this action was KD’s last in the Suns jersey? It is far from being impossible, since defeat places the Suns for two victories from 10th place, last qualifier for the play-in. With a complicated end of the season in terms of the calendar and a major weapon now injured, it will be necessary to count on defeats of the Mavericks and Kings while not dropping any match in order to continue to believe in a qualification.
