Early takeaway:
Without KD in the lineup, Memphis matches up well enough against the Suns for this to not be a mismatch in my opinion. Suns have a bunch of role players who aren’t necessarily great individual scorers. This game could turn into a battle of defenses – 5:25 PM

Devin Booker in attack mode early without KD, he’s taken 5 of the Suns’ first 6 shots. Suns down 9-6 early – 5:15 PM

Breaking from my Thanksgiving coma just in time for this late-matinee Grizz-Suns, with Desmond Bane and without Kevin Durant. Doubt the New Grizzlies play, but Jaylen Nowell has a little scoring pop this team could use right now. – 4:51 PM

Free agent forward TJ Warren is 100 percent healthy and eying an NBA return. The 30-year-old forward discussed how he can help a playoff team, the bubble, behind the scenes playing with Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons on the Nets, and more.

QUESTION: What was Chris Paul upset about that led to the initial discussion? FOSTER: The foul called against him at 23.5. QUESTION: Why was Chris Paul assessed the first technical foul? FOSTER: For unsportsmanlike conduct. QUESTION: How did Chris Paul escalate the situation to be given a second technical foul, leading to his ejection from the game? FOSTER: He continued to complain and received a second unsportsmanlike technical foul. QUESTION: What was the reason for Kevin Durant’s technical foul late in the fourth quarter? FOSTER: By NBA guidelines for Respect for the Game, players cannot throw the ball against the stanchion. -via NBA.com / November 23, 2023
