The Suns got burned in the third quarter of Game 3, giving up 33 points to the Lakers in the frame en route to a 109-95 loss. Chris Paul still seems off with a shoulder injury, but Phoenix’s role players haven’t been able to find the mark. Jae Crowder is not making shots and Mikal Bridges only had five attempts in the loss. Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton continue to score, but the Suns will have to get the supporting cast going to bring this series back to Phoenix 2-2.
LeBron James and Anthony Davis turned in another strong effort, combining for 55 points in the win. They particularly did well in the third quarter, logging 28 of the team’s 33 points. The Lakers are still struggling to hit perimeter shots, but they are locked in defensively and are dominating the boards. This is LA’s chance to take a firm grip on the series.
The Lakers are the favorites in Game 4 at -6.5.
