The Phoenix Suns (16-19) begin their first of a three-game homestand against the Atlanta Hawks (19-18) on Thursday.

The Atlanta Hawks are wrapping up their six game road trip tonight in Phoenix with a matchup against the Suns. It has not been the best road trip for the Hawks,

Bradley Beal rang up 25 points for the second time in his three games coming off the bench to lead the Suns. Kevin Durant scored 23 points as did Grayson Allen off the bench while Devin Booker posted a double-double of 20 points and 12 assists to just two turnovers in 40 minutes.

The Atlanta Hawks head to Footprint Center to face the Phoenix Suns in a non-conference matchup. The Hawks are 19-18, which puts them in ninth place in the Eastern Conference. The Suns are are 16-19, which puts them in 12th place in the Western Conference.

Book has had everything handed to him since James Jones arrived. Promising new rookies. (Josh Jackson, Deandre Ayton, Mikal Bridges and Cam Johnson). All-time great veterans (Chris Paul, Durant and Beal). New coaches (Monty Williams, Frank Vogel and Mike Budenholzer). The franchise has even upgraded the locker room and practice facility.

Recording a double-double for the third straight game and helping the Phoenix Suns win 123-115 over the Atlanta Hawks, Devin Booker was happy to get a victory after the team has been struggling over the last few weeks.

Watching his team come together and pull off a 123-115 victory over the Atlanta Hawks, Phoenix Suns head coach Mike Budenholzer was pleased with the effort and the adjustments that were made.

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal had another impressive outing off the bench on Thursday, going for 25 points and seven rebounds on 11 of 16 from the field in a win over the Atlanta Hawks. That was Beal's second 25-point outing since he was removed from the starting lineup earlier this month.

The Phoenix Suns are trending downward despite having a talented, top-heavy roster. While the Suns have a few months to find their rhythm before the start of the postseason, they may send a silky-smooth 6-foot-10 wing to the Atlanta Hawks in a surprising move.

As he left the arena Thursday night, Beal didn’t sound like someone ready to give in. His role has changed. He has not.
