He had a game-high of 24 points along with six rebounds, two assists, two steals, and two blocks. He made nine of his 15 shot attempts going 60 percent and making six of his seven free throw attempts.

The Phoenix Suns are looking pretty good and if their young players can improve even more this season they are going to be a strong team in the near future.

Lillard's 18 not enough

He also shot 53.3 percent from the field making eight of his 15 shots from the field. Damian Lillard continues to bloom into a consistent NBA All-Star and with the right help, he can truly lead the Blazers to a deep playoff run.

Nurkic shoots 61 percent

Jusuf Nurkic played an amazing game against the Phoenix Suns. He scored 16 points, three rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block.

He shot an amazing 61.5 percent from the field and made eight of his 14 field goal attempts. Jusuf Nurkic was acquired by the Portland Trailblazers last season in exchange for Mason Plumlee of the Denver Nuggets. Nurkic has continued to play well but Nurkic still has to learn to play consistently in order for the Trailblazers to survive the extremely tough western conference.
