PHOENIX SCOUTING REPORT
The Phoenix Suns (Kevin Durant, Devin Booker) and Los Angeles Lakers (LeBron James, Anthony Davis) are the only Western Conference teams to have two 2024 NBA All-Stars, with at least one of them in the starting lineup. Durant is Phoenix's starter, making his 14th All-Star appearance, while Booker is a reserve for his fourth All-Star nod. The Suns are the only team in the league with two top-10 scorers (Durant 28.4 PPG, 6th; Booker 27.9 PPG, 8th). Bradley Beal is also hitting his stride as the third star, averaging 32.7 points over his last three games, beginning with a 43-point performance against his former team (Washington Wizards).
