Devin Booker scored a game-high 32 points and Kevin Durant registered 24 points in his second game at Brooklyn against his former team to lead Phoenix (22-21) back above .500.
Devin Booker's 200th 30-point game, and Kevin Durant's 24 points against his former team pushed the Phoenix Suns to a 108-84 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night.
Russell has struggled to stay on the floor since joining the Nets in a Dec. 29 trade from the Los Angeles Lakers. He's missed six of the team's 13 matchups while battling shin and hamstring ailments. The veteran point guard has shouldered a much heavier on-ball burden than with the Lakers during the first half of this season.
