Douby to Garcia, he drives, forces the shot, doesn't go and Banks gets the rebound.

Suns on the run, Robinson refuses to allow them to stroll through the paint. Hard foul will send the Suns to the line after the time out.

I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!

Kids still showing a lot of hustle on defense.

Suns miss.

Time out.

 

[VF21]

Note: I think Robinson is 7 and Parada is 55, but I'm not absolutely sure without checking. I looked up and saw Christie (13), JWill (55) and Hedo (5) at one point and became totally confused.

 

[VF21]

If Douby, Martin and Garcia ever play the backcourt at the same time, no one will be able to see them, let alone stop them.

Kings inbound.

7 pass, intended for 25, goes oob off Suns. Still Kings ball.

1;13 left

107-93 Suns

Robinson miss; hustle for the rebound. Loose ball foul on Suns.

Some new kid for the Kings gets the first, but I don't know who it is because Grant and Jerry are talking about the SUns broadcast guy. Our new guy makes the second, but still not sure who he was.

107-95 Suns

Three by Strawberry.

110-95 Suns

 

[VF21]

Caner-Medley for two - his first NBA hoop.
