Duane Washington Jr. had a career night in leading Phoenix to a revenge win Tuesday at Memphis, which beat the Suns by 25 last week in Phoenix.
No trailing by as many as 34 or losing by 25.Without Devin Booker, Phoenix came out with a big lineup to match Memphis’ size of Steven Adams and Jaren Jackson Jr., got a impactful boost from backup point guard Duane Washington Jr. and was the more forceful team in Tuesday’s 125-108 over the Grizzlies at FedExForum.Before the game, Washington Jr. roared into the locker room during media availability jumping up and down with excitement and screaming about the game.
That was a follow up to Morant saying he’s “fine in the West” when asked during an ESPN interview with Malika Andrews about who do the Grizzlies have to go through to win a title this season.“Whether it's Boston, Memphis, these teams that are big and physical, and want to put their hands on us, we don't have the pregame edge we've had around here,” Williams said. “We've got to get back to chasing something. I feel like the prey, and I don't like that feeling.
So the Suns flew to Memphis with a third straight loss, but feeling better about their effort going into a rematch with a team that blasted them less than seven days ago.
