The last time the Phoenix Suns had a chance to finish a series, Devin Booker went absolutely nuts. He buried the Los Angeles Lakers with 47 points, including 22 in the first quarter alone.

Could we see more of the same from the Suns star in Game 4 against the Denver Nuggets? The 2-time All-Star spoke out about potentially knocking off their 2nd round opponents in the minimum number of games. But Book knows it's not a foregone conclusion. (via report from ESPN's Nick Friedell)

“We've experienced one [closeout game] already,” Suns guard Devin Booker said. “Knowing those guys aren't going to give up. They've got the MVP of the league over there, they're well coached by Mike Malone and they've got some players that play very hard. Nobody ever wants their season to end, so we know they're going to give it their shot and we're prepared for that.”
