A brief list of 2018-19 Phoenix Suns matchups to look for
By Chad Boyles
It is not easy to watch your favorite team play every game on their schedule. If you are a Suns fan, you know the team has not made it any easier recently. This is a turn of the tide.
Led by Devin Booker, and more pieces of the puzzle falling in place this summer, the Suns are in store for an entertaining season. But, if you can’t watch every game, here are some match-ups you will want to see!
7. Devin Booker and the Suns take on the Knicks in MSG.
In his last two visits to the Big Apple, Devin Booker has not disappointed (Suns fans). Actually, he only disappointed Knicks fans once. Despite nailing the go-ahead bucket in an eventual win in New York two years ago, last year Booker was ejected from the world’s most famous arena, after throwing a shove at Enes Kanter.
Booker had 34 points up to that moment, but was forced to leave early after pushing Kanter. The Suns ended up losing by double-digits.
This year, the upgraded Suns will look to take it to Kanter, one of the NBAs biggest characters.
The Knicks, while also making changes, are expected to be without their star, Kristaps Porzingis, who proved near unguardable for the Suns in New York last season.
The Suns will be riding their newly contracted star into Madison Square Garden, and the opportunity will certainly be there for him to leave his mark at MSG like many big-name performers have.
Catch the Suns in Manhattan on December 17th (5:30PM).
