Booker Shines as Suns Beat Spurs Despite Durant Injury

Devin Booker led the Phoenix Suns to a 104-93 victory over the San Antonio Spurs, scoring 29 points and surpassing 15,000 career points, despite the team losing Kevin Durant to an ankle injury mid-game. Durant exited the game in the second quarter after an awkward fall, scoring 13 points before his departure. The Suns' win was part of the NBA Cup play, but they were ultimately eliminated from advancing due to results in other games. Victor Wembanyama of the Spurs struggled in the first half but finished with 15 points and 13 rebounds. The Suns, who were hoping to secure a wild-card spot, will now focus on getting Durant healthy as they aim to improve their season performance. This game highlights Booker's contribution to the team, especially in Durant's absence.
