The perimeter threat averages 19.2 points, but had only 10 Saturday.He struggled, Watson said of Booker. He gave all he had. He knew he wanted to play because we didnt have T.J.

They had some guys that usually dont make shots that made shots because they were basically workout shots. There was nobody there to contest them.Another defensive challenge comes against the Suns, who average 108.4 points, sixth in the NBA.Markieff Morris left in the second quarter with a sprained ankle and did not return, though was walking without an issue in the postgame locker room.
