Suns Defeat Nuggets 110-100 in Christmas Day Rematch

Phoenix bounces back from Monday's blowout loss with strong performances by Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal, despite missing key players.

Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal each scored 27 points, leading the Suns to a 110-100 victory over the Nuggets on Christmas night in Phoenix.
The Suns were without Devin Booker (groin) and Grayson Allen (concussion protocol), yet managed to snap a three-game losing streak.
Nikola Jokic led Denver with 25 points and 15 rebounds but struggled after a strong first quarter, scoring just seven points in the second half.
Denver's offense faltered with 16 turnovers, and Aaron Gordon exited in the third quarter with calf tightness, further hampering the team.
Phoenix capitalized on Jokic's rest minutes late in the third and early in the fourth quarter, extending their lead to double digits and maintaining control to secure the win.
