Grayson Allen · Winning teams secure victories with timely defensive plays, and Grayson Allen delivered exactly what the Phoenix Suns needed in crunch time. With just 13 seconds remaining and the Suns clinging to a narrow 106-103 lead, Allen applied suffocating pressure on Knicks guard Jalen Brunson near halfcourt. The relentless defense forced Brunson into a rushed pass that sailed out of bounds, effectively sealing the victory for Phoenix at Mortgage Matchup Center.
