PHOENIX — The Phoenix Suns' placement across new NBA power rankings is more than fair after the week they had. The Suns' 25-17 record still is good for seventh place in the West, though a two-game losing streak last week (their first in just over a month) didn't exactly prop Phoenix up the board in three new power rankings today:

The SportsLine model is projecting Phoenix's Devin Booker to score 26.7 points on average and be one of five Suns players to score 12.8 or more points. Miami's Norman Powell (questionable, back), meanwhile, is projected to have 21.8 points as six Heat players score 13.4 points or more as the Over hits nearly 60% of the time.

The two teams square off for the second time this season. The Suns defeated the Knicks 112-107 in their last meeting on Jan. 10. Devin Booker led the Suns with 31 points, and Jalen Brunson led the Knicks with 27 points.

Devin Booker hit the game-winning 3 over Alex Caruso with 0.7 seconds left. Ajay Mitchell missed a corner 3 at the buzzer for OKC (30-6). Booker was 0-for-3 from 3 before making that last attempt. He finished with 24 points.

Scored a career-high 17 points on 11/13/25 vs. IND, posting a plus/minus of +52 off the bench, the highest plus/minus by a Suns player since play-by-play was added (1996-97) and the 2nd-highest in the play-by-play era by any NBA player off the bench
