In the second overtime, Jalen Green relieves the Suns

The second stop on this four-game West road trip for the Magic will challenge the Suns, who have been struggling recently after a four-game losing streak. Without Devin Booker shot in the hip, Phoenix concedes 6-0 to start the match early Dillon Brooks opens his team’s counterattack with a long shot. After only seven minutes of the game, the winger left, hit his hand and did not play in the game again. We will find out after the meeting that Dillon Brooks is suffering from a broken left arm!

Without him, Phoenix still holds its own against the Magic and leads by just four points despite the huge Desmond Bane (34 points, shooting 12/18) author of shooting 5/5 at the end of this first act (25-21). Phoenix eventually took their first lead of the match thanks to a game-winning basket by Collin Gillespiebut it doesn’t last. in the process Jalen Green (16 points, 6/26 shooting, 2/11 3-pointers) draws a foul on Desmond Bain’s 3-pointer and the former Memphis player goes 3/3 at the line. Magic expands a new gap thanks to Jevon Carter etc Paolo Banchero (51-39).

Jalen Green is skilled at the best of times

Although they trailed by eight points at halftime, Jordan Ott’s players started the second half with a 14-3 run that was concluded by Jaylen Green and which gave the home team the advantage (57-54). Throughout the third quarter, the two teams remained tight-lipped. In the last minute of that, Moritz Wagner appears with 2+1 and a winning basket, but Jordan Goodwin responds with a long shot at the buzzer (77-73). This same Jordan Goodwin allows Phoenix to take an eleven-point lead, which is then the biggest gap in the match (91-82).

However, Orlando didn’t give up and counted on Jalen Green’s numerous fumbles to tie the game 30 seconds into the game. Neither team can take advantage and the match goes into overtime. If Wendell Carter Jr gives Magic an advantage on “and one”, Grayson Allen (27 points, 7 rebounds) allows Phoenix not to fall behind. At the end of the last minute, where neither the Magic nor the Suns managed to score, the match went into a second overtime.

The second overtime saw Phoenix quickly dominate the debate thanks to the Grayson Allen / Jalen Green duo. With 30 seconds left in the match, Orlando is three points behind. Jonathan Isaac goes 0/2 on free throws, but Jevon Carter makes up for the awkwardness of his interior with a game-winning shot that ties the teams with one second to play.

The final possession goes to Jalen Green. While struggling throughout the matchup as his 6/26 shooting, the former Rockets player went up for 3-pointers to relieve Phoenix and give the Suns a 113-110 victory.

WHAT TO REMEMBER

Jalen Green never doubted. In the final minutes of regulation time, Jalen Green had several chances to beat Phoenix, but never made it. Discreet in the first overtime, decisive in the second. He scored seven points including this shot at the buzzer to help the Suns win despite the loss of Dillon Brooks early in the game.

Broken arm for Dillon Brooks. This is the bad news of the evening for Phoenix. Before the meeting, the Arizona franchise had already announced that Devin Booker would miss a week of competition with a hip injury. Following this problem, Dillon Brooks was forced to leave his team just seven minutes after kickoff. Left arm fracture victim, Jalen Green’s teammate will take exams this week to determine the exact duration of his unavailability.

Desmond Bain and Paolo Banchero were not enough. With the duo of Devin Booker / Dillon Brooks on the side, Orlando had a boulevard to win. Desmond Bain worked hard early in the match hitting his first five shots and finishing with 34 points, but was unable to get on the floor in the final minutes as he was ejected for six fouls. Next to him, Paolo Banchero worked hard with 26 points and 14 rebounds, but his 11/28 shooting cost the Floridians dearly, especially in overtime where the wing center multiplied missed shots and turnovers.
