Jalen Brunson Registers A Double-Double Versus Suns
3 years agoDallas Mavericks point guard Jalen Brunson bagged his third double-double of the season on Friday against the Suns, finishing a 112-104 loss with 18 points and 10 assists. He also had four rebounds and one steal with two turnovers in 35 minutes, while shooting 7-for-19 from the field with a 1-for-4 record from outside. Playing Phoenix just seems to suit Brunson, as he was close to a triple-double in the matchup earlier in the week. He's been starting with Luka Doncic (knee and ankle) out of the picture and Brunson has relished the challenge of filling a bigger role. The 25-year-old has notched 24.7 points, 8.7 rebounds and five assists whilst rolling with the starters this season. Doncic carried a doubtful tag ahead of Friday and it's not yet known when he might return.
