Entering the second round of the NBA playoffs, most had estimated the Phoenix Suns – Denver Nuggets series would be a long one. Denver had eliminated the Blazers in the first round while the Suns brushed away LeBron James and the Lakers.

Instead of a nail biter, the Suns dismantled the Nuggets in four games, sweeping them out of the postseason.

Chris Paul and Devin Booker were on fire all series while Deandre Ayton did a great job of trying to limit Nikola Jokic. As a result, the Suns are off to the Western Conference Finals. After the Game 4 win, the Phoenix locker room was on another level.

Deandre Ayton and Cam Payne clearly weren't going to let the opportunity pass by without turning the locker room into their own dance floor. Next time they need to get Frank Kaminsky off his phone and make him join in on the festivities.

The Suns won Game 4 in Denver by a final score of 125-118. It appeared not having Jamal Murray finally caught up to the Nuggets in this series. To pile on to Denver's woes, MVP Nikola Jokic was ejected late in the 3rd quarter for what was deemed to be a flagrant two foul as he slapped down on the ball while guarding Cam Payne. Jokic appeared to get a piece of Payne's face on the swipe, prompting the ejection.
