Ricky Rubio and Devin Booker defeat Los Angeles Clippers

Very important victory of Phoenix Suns before Los Angeles Clippers 117-115 that keeps Arizona with options to qualify for the playoffs after winning the three duels that have played during the Orlando bubble.

Devin Booker He was the key man of the game with a basket on the horn despite the great defense he received from Kawhi Leonard and Paul George.

Ricky Rubio He missed a shot 12 seconds from the end to put his own ahead, but Mikal Bridges stole the portfolio from Ivica Zubac and allowed the Suns to have the last ball to win the game. Booker received, turned around before Kawhi and although PG came to bother him as much as he could with the shot, he ended up sticking it in his face.

This win leaves the Suns as the only undefeated team in the bubble in the Western Conference (in the East the Pacers continue), 1.5 games from the play-in and 3 from eighth place by some Memphis Grizzlies who have just lost due to injury he was being his best player in Orlando, Jaren Jackson Jr.

The Clippers, meanwhile, lose their second duel at Disney, leaving them within easy reach of the Nuggets in the fight for second place in the West. Kawhi Leonard’s gesture of despair at the end of the game said it all: they don’t want to continue in this dynamic.

The Suns play tomorrow against the Pacers in the undefeated matchup and the Clippers are next challenged on Friday by Luka Doncic’s Dallas Mavericks.
