On the night Phoenix celebrated Devin Booker becoming the franchise’s all-time leading scorer, Grayson Allen almost stole the show.
A Suns team where Kevin Durant and Devin Booker were sitting out was about to suffer an ugly loss to the Jazz. Phoenix was down by three with 0.9 seconds left, when this play led to a Grayson Allen 3 to force overtime.
