Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Phoenix Suns 118-110

With 31 rebounds, Jusuf Nurkic shattered the franchise record for the Suns and produced the most in an NBA game in 14 years. Along with five of Phoenix's 21 turnovers, he finished with 14 points. Devin Booker, the Suns' standout guard, injured his right ankle late in a Saturday night defeat to Houston, so he was sidelined for the game. In the Western Conference, Oklahoma City moved to 42-18 to establish a half-game lead over rivals Denver and Minnesota in the Northwest Division. Before losing Thursday night in San Antonio, the Thunder had won six straight games, and this one almost slipped away.

Oklahoma City's starting five all had double-digit scores. Josh Giddey scored ten, Luguentz Dort scored thirteen, and Jalen Williams scored twenty-two. Gilgeous-Alexander had nine assists and eight rebounds.
