In a surprising victory, the injury-riddled Brooklyn Nets defeated the Phoenix Suns 127-117, led by Tyrese Martin's career-high 30 points and Dennis Schroder's 29. The Nets have now won four of their last five games, while the Suns continue to struggle, losing seven of their last nine.
Martin's performance was particularly impressive, shooting 10 of 13 from the field and 8 for 10 from beyond the arc. Despite missing key players, the Nets showcased depth with contributions from Ben Simmons and Trendon Watford. The Suns, on the other hand, struggled with turnovers, giving up 24 points off 17 mistakes.
