Rudy Gobert moved ahead of Kevin McHale in blocks last night. He’s No. 31 all-time now.
Also: Bradley Beal passed Bob Cousy in scoring for No. 105 in NBA history. Devin Booker moved past Jeff Hornacek and Antoine Walker for No. 134. – 3:45 AM

“It’s tough. I’m sure he’ll be hurting tonight. He’ll be thinking about it. There’s nobody else I’d rather have shooting that free throw than Devin Booker.” Mike Budenholzer.

And yes, I’m addressing the loss.
Booker’s historical moment will be treated as such, but the bottom line is, Phoenix Suns are 25-24 after losing back-to-back games to the Blazers, who are 8-1 in last 9, but 8 games under .500.
At OKC Wednesday. Trade deadline Thursday. #Suns – 1:57 AM

“It means everything,” Booker said. “Just being drafted to a franchise that believed in me, taking a chance on me as an 18-year-old kid and going through a rebuild phase and just sticking with it.
