Hornets Lose Tight One on the Road to Phoenix, 101-96, Dropping to 4-8
Booker added 30 points and four 3-pointers as Phoenix turned 25 Charlotte turnovers into 38 points and won its fourth in five games.
- On Thursday, the Phoenix Suns secured a 101-96 victory over the Charlotte Hornets before a sellout crowd of 17,071 at Mortgage Matchup Center, led by Suns guard Devin Booker's game-high 30 points.
- Building a 17-point first-half lead, the Suns nearly faltered when Charlotte mounted a 33-11 run spanning the second and third quarters to briefly lead before Phoenix recovered in the fourth quarter.
- Hornets guard Coby White returned to score a season-high 21 points, while Suns forward Dillon Brooks added 15 points and three 3-pointers; Charlotte's 25 turnovers converted into 38 Phoenix points proved decisive.
- Down the stretch, Hornets coach Charles Lee deployed an offensively-deficient lineup, while the Suns' coaching staff sat starters Jalen Green and Miles Bridges, reflecting Phoenix's depth advantage.
- The Suns improved to 5-6 on their seven-game homestand with this victory, while the Hornets fell to 4-8 and have now lost seven of their last eight games.
