He is doubtful to participate in Friday\u2019s rematch against the Suns.<\/p>\n<p>With 24 points, Booker led six Suns in double digits on a night when Phoenix overcame the Mavericks\u2019 50 per cent three-point shooting and a 48-39 disparity in points off threes. Ayton had a game-high-tying 13 rebounds to go along with 19 points, while Paul had a game-high 14 assists to go along with only seven points.<\/p>\n<p>For the Suns, who trailed by as many as eight points in the third quarter, Crowder (14 points), Landry Shamet (11 points), Mikal Bridges (10), and JaVale McGee (10) all scored in double figures.<br \/>\nThe Mavericks, who have now lost two of their last seven games, were led by Tim Hardaway Jr.\u2019s 22 points and Kristaps Porzingis\u2019 21 points. Hardaway, Frank Ntilikina, who finished with 13 points off the bench, and Dorian Finney-Smith, who scored exclusively from beyond the arc, each had three of Dallas\u2019 16 three-pointers.<\/p>\n<p>The Mavericks were led by Dwight Powell, who had 13 rebounds to match Ayton\u2019s total, while Brunson had 18 points and Trey Burke had 10. With nine rebounds and a team-high nine assists, Brunson came close to a double- and triple-double.<\/p>\n<p>Booker in the 4th quarter with 50 seconds left iced the game with his clutch 3 pointers to lead the Suns to their 10 straight win, which is as of now the longest streak in the 2021\/22 NBA season.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">THE DAGGER. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4uwQvYeEGF\">pic.twitter.com\/4uwQvYeEGF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Phoenix Suns (@Suns) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Suns\/status\/1461206154411864065?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 18, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Devin Booker led the Suns with 24 points and the point god CP3 recorded 14 assists to win against Luka-less Mavericks by 105-98. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":220,"featured_media":38390,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[1008,2847,1795,1729,2837,826,1792],"class_list":["post-17646","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba","tag-chris-paul","tag-dallas-mavericks","tag-deandre-ayton","tag-devin-booker","tag-luka-doncic","tag-nba","tag-phoenix-suns"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17646","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/220"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17646"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17646\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/38390"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17646"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17646"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17646"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
