Jared Dudley had a career high 27 points in his second straight start, but a poor third quarter was too much to come back from for the Suns as the San Antonio Spurs won 118-110 on Monday night.  Phoenix held a one point halftime lead, but were outscored 40-24 in the third quarter. Besides Dudley’s 27 [...]

It might have been a different date, but the Suns 1o6-99 loss to the Trail Blazers last night felt real similar to the game that the two teams played to start off the season.  Like in their first matchup, the Suns had control of the game in the first three quarters, but a poor final [...]

The Suns close out their four-game road trip tonight in Houston.  The first three games of this trip have been three of the ugliest games for the Suns in recent memory as Phoenix has been outscored by an average of 20 points in those games.  Phoenix is hoping that they can close out the road [...]

It wasn’t as high scoring as expected, but Steve Nash’s great play and key defensive steps down the stretch were enough to give the Suns a 102-89 victory against the Sacramento Kings at U.S. Airways Center on Saturday night.  The Suns got back to the .500 mark with their victory over the team from Sac [...]
