The Phoenix Suns defeated the Chicago Bulls 120–110 on April 5 at the United Center, with Devin Booker leading Phoenix's balanced attack with 30 points while Josh Green added 25. The Suns shot 50.6 percent from the field and made 13 three-pointers, outpacing Chicago's 45.1 percent shooting and 10 made threes. Phoenix's fourth quarter proved decisive, outscoring the Bulls 34–26 in the final frame to secure the road victory. Despite Chicago's Terrence Jones posting 29 points and Collin Sexton contributing 18, the Bulls' defensive rating of 116.9 proved costly, and their 18 turnovers limited their chances. The Suns' superior ball security—15 turnovers to Chicago's 18—and 116.9 offensive rating powered their efficiency edge. The game finished well below the Vegas total of 243.5, suggesting a defensive-minded second half. Phoenix's road win strengthens playoff positioning, while Chicago's home loss underscores ongoing inconsistency.
